Regulation of the firing pattern of single motor units

S Andreassen et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1980 Oct.

Abstract

The normal control of force in the anterior tibial muscle was reflected by a fast regulation of the interval pattern of single motor units. Short and long intervals alternated, the correlation between successive intervals was negative and "double discharges" were present. The discharge rate at 60% of maximal effort was at most 20 Hz.
