متن کاملThe Action Potential in Fibers of Slow Conduc- Tion in Spinal Roots and Somatic Nerves
The conducted action potential of mixed somatic nerve when recorded, after amplification, by the cathode ray oscillograph exhibits waves, the more constant and prominent of which, for the sake of convenience, have been designated alpha, beta, gamma and delta’ in the order of their n signated appearance (Erlanger, Gasser and Bishop, 1924).
