Description
Summary:The present paper aims to presents standard values for the contents of water, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, copper and iron in muscles (tibialis anterior, deltoid and pectoralis major) in individuals without any neurological conditions. This study shall constitute the basis for the interpretation of other data, still being gathered, relating these normal values with those obtained for muscles under pathological conditions.<br>Os autores determinaram o conteúdo era água, sódio, potássio, cálcio, magnésio, fósforo, cobre e ferro em músculos estriados (tibial anterior, deltóide e grande peitoral) de indivíduos sem afecção neurológica. Êste estudo constitui base para estudos comparativos na composição química de afecções neuromusculares.
