| Method |
Primary source abstract: "This review summarizes a variety of estimates for the concentrations of the principal cytosolic constituents in frog skeletal muscle. From these estimates (listed in the APPENDIX), [investigators] chose representative values and used electroneutrality and osmotic considerations to ensure that all major constituents have been considered. Given total cytosolic concentrations of these constituents from the literature, [they] employed a computer program to calculate the concentrations of all the major ionic species in the cytosol." |

P.6664 left column 3rd paragraph: "Again, these concentrations are subject to cell- and tissue-type variations. One example is frog muscle, where phosphocreatine is the most abundant metabolite (∼50 mM), followed by carnosine, total free amino acids, creatine and total ATP at respective concentrations of 19.5 mM, 11.7 mM, 11.0 mM, and 6.2 mM (primary source)." |
