Abstract

Loaded frog's stomach muscle at first relaxes and then contracts when treated with dinitrophenol (DNP). It was presumed that the relaxation and the subsequent contraction produced by DNP were duo to depletion of stores of adenosine triphosphate. In the present research ATP, ADP and AMP have actually been estimated under the foregoing conditions.
