No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 1990-01-01 As revealed by the NADH-diaphorase, SDH and myosin ATPase, the M. pectineus of the cat possesses at least 3 main kind of fibres, with different distribution on the superficial and deep portions of the muscle. The superficial portion revealed that 23.6% are FOG fibres: 17.8% are SO fibres and 58.6% are FG fibres. Already the deep portion revealed that 61.4% are FOG fibres: 14.5% are SO fibres and 24.1% are FG fibres. The myosin ATPase reaction was used to demonstrate contracting characteristics. These findings suggest that the movements of fast contraction of M. pectineus are predominant.
