This work is concerned with a study of the action of veratrine sulphate on the electrical responses of skeletal muscle. All the experiments performed in this study involve the use of frog’s skeletal muscle. However, because of the similarity of the actions of this alkaloid on nerve and muscle, much of the discussion and many of the references given will concern studies performed on nerve fiber preparations. About 10 years ago, an excellent review on the pharmacology of the veratrum alkaloids appeared (Krayer and Aches on, 1946).
