Abstract
By using acetyl strophanthidin 0.2#mu#mol/L, the delayed after depolartization was induced in sheep cardiac purkinje fibers and recorded woth intra-cellular microoelectrode. The reslts indicate that excitation of alph-receptor had only slight augmentation effect on DAD. However, for the triggered activity induced by DAD, the inhibitory effect ofbeta-blockers are stronger than that alpha-blockers.
