Thermodynamic bifurcation in anoxic heart: A far-from-equilibrium dissipative structure.

Thermodynamic consequences of a three-hour long anoxia were investigated on the isolated mammalian rat myocardium. The anoxic heart operated in a far-from-equilibrium manner as attested by the non-linearity between the thermodynamic force and the thermodynamic flow. When subjected to slight fluctuat...
