Summary A method for the estimation of muscle nucleotides is described. The separation of nucleotides has been accomplished by paper ionophoresis at high voltages, as well as by paper chromatography. Even little changes in the nucleotide content such as the changes in a single muscular contraction can be well observed by this method. A decrease of 0.25 µ M ATP/g/contraction (i.e. about ⅛ of the normal ATP content) has been observed in a contracted muscle, when compared with the ATP content of the resting muscle.
