Abstract
Electrocardiographic and flexible suction electrode techniques were used to investigate the effects of a nutmeg extract on the toad heart. Acute treatment with the extract resulted in a dose-related sinus tachycardia, faster atrioventricular conduction speed and an increased amplitude of ventricular action potential. Chronic treatment resulted in sinus bradycardia and decreased amplitude and increased duration of ventricular action potential.
