The spectral characteristics of the pH-sensitive dyes neutral red (NR) and bromcresol purple (BCP) were utilized for studies of the changing intracellular pH (pHi) of sartorius muscles from Rana pipiens, both during the course of an isometric twitch and during recovery metabolism subsequent to a
Phenytoin (diphenylhydantoin; Dilantin), ALZA Corp.) is a highly effective and widely prescribed anticonvulsant agent used in the treatment of focal and tonic clonic generalised seizures.
