| Method |
Most determinations were made with intracellular electrodes |
| Comments |
Axon diameters are: fast-closer axon 58µm: slow-closer axon 41: opener axon 36µm. Values given have usually been measured with very little saline shunt and would be appreciably higher-up to 50%-in sea water or in the animal. |
