## Abstract The physiological crossβsectional area (CSA) of a motor unit (MU), taken as the sum of fiber areas measured on a single section through the approximate midlength of the MU, has been compared with the physiological CSA more strictly defined as the sum of the maximal areas to be found any
The fast-twitch flexor digitorum longus (FDL) muscle was partially denervated by a unilateral section of the L7 ventral root. After approximately 100 days the isometric, force-velocity and histochemical properties of single motor units from the partially denervated muscle were determined. The diamet
