HINDLIMB MUSCLE FIBER POPULATIONS OF FIVE MAMMALS
Abstract
The fiber type profiles of hindlimb muscles in the Hartley guinea pig, Sprague-Dawley rat, cat, Galago senegalensis (lesser bushbaby) and Nycticebus coucang (slow loris) were estimated histochemically. Fibers were classified as fast oxidative glycolytic, fast glycolytic or slow oxidative according to their myosin adenosine triphosphatase, α-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide diaphorase activities. It was found that the soleus and vastus intermedius muscles had the highest proportion of slow oxidative fibers in all five species, demonstrating the constancy of muscle fiber profiles dependent upon anatomical position and functional utilization. The tensor fascia latae and white vastus lateralis of the guinea pig were mostly fast glycolytic, while the red vastus lateralis of the guinea pig consisted of predominantly fast oxidative glycolytic fibers. The majority of muscles investigated in these five mammals were heterogeneous, having a wide range of percentages of the three fiber types.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
