Özet

The venom from the scorpion Leiurus quinquestriatus quinquestriatus has previously been shown to alter the excitability of the neural and skeletal muscle preparations. The present study was undertaken to explore the effects of the venom in cardiac potential signals at the animal, tissue and the cell level in rats hearts.
