Summary The aim of this study was to verify the hypothesis that the excitatory wave is a reversible parabiotic process. Experiments were performed on people and cats. A nerve was subjected to serial frequent short stimuli by a constant current for 0.5, 1.4 and 8 msec. and the frequency of stimuli resulting in the appearance of a pessimal muscular reaction was determined. Pessimum appeared at much lower frequencies if stimuli were prolonged—the pause between stimuli being larger. This phenomenon is considered as a delayed reversible course of the parabiotic process, caused by the constant current.
