Title
Compensating For Changes In Heart Muscle Resting Heat Production In A Microcalorimeter
Abstract
The heat production of cardiac muscle, determined by calorimetry, can be used as a measure of cardiac metabolism. However, heat produced while a muscle is actively-shortening, thereby performing force-length work, comprises both active and basal metabolic processes. In this paper, we present a method for post-experimental processing of calorimetric measurements of muscle heat production, that uncovers and compensates for the measured basal heat rate during work. In this method, the relationships between muscle length, velocity of length change and muscle heat output are coupled with a simulation of the measurement instrument, providing a model-based estimate of change of measured basal heat while the muscle is performing work. We demonstrate the use of this technique in an experiment conducted on a working cardiac muscle sample. The ability to identify the various components of heat release in these muscles provides useful insight into their mechanical and energetic capabilities.
