TL;DR
The results of experiments in which the membrane constants were measured will be presented in greater detail and the method of 'square pulse analysis' will be used to determine the constants.

The Journal of PhysiologyAn analysis of the end‐plate potential recorded with an intra‐cellular electrode
1,397 Citations1951P. Fatt, B. Katz
The immediate concern of the present work is to determine the electric charge which passes through the end-plate membrane during the transmission of one impulse and to throw some light on the mechanism by which the transfer of ions across theend-plate is brought about.
The Journal of PhysiologyThe electrical constants of Purkinje fibres
629 Citations1952Silvio Weidmann
The aim of the present work was to measure the myoplasm resistance and the membrane resistance and capacity in Purkinje fibres of the mammalian heart, which are important in any discussion of cardiac excitation and conduction.
The Journal of PhysiologyThe end‐plate potential in mammalian muscle
388 Citations1956I. A. Boyd, Andrew R. Martin
In the experiments to be reported here, the intracellular recording technique has been employed in a more complete investigation of transmission in mammalian skeletal muscle (cat), and was designed to determine whether the processes involved in neuromuscular transmission are identical in the two cases.
The Journal of PhysiologySpontaneous subthreshold activity at mammalian neuromuscular junctions
204 Citations1956I. A. Boyd, Andrew Martin
The presence of spontaneous miniature end-plate potentials in mammalian muscle has been reported already and under various experimental conditions there are several differences in behaviour which are of interest.

62 Citations1953J. del Castillo, Xenia Machne
The present paper gives the results of experiments made to study the effect of temperature changes on the membrane resistance and capacitance of striated frog muscle fibres.
