Ventricular Repolarization and Calcium Transient Show Resonant Behavior under Oscillatory Pacing Rate

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Cardiac EC coupling is triggered by rhythmic depolarizing current fronts originating from the sino-atrial node, and the way variability in rhythm is associated with variability in action potential duration (APD) and, in turn, in the variability of ...

Natural ivory is no longer readily or legally available, as it is obtained primarily from elephant tusks, which now enjoy international protection. Ivory, however, is the best material known for piano keys. We present a hydroxylapatite-gelatin biocomposite that is chemically identical to natural ivory but with functional properties optimized to replace
