(1) Orthogonal responses differed from isogonal ones in having smoother response profiles and in showing no overnight recovery.
Isotonic
Definition:
(a.) Having or indicating, equal tones, or tension.
Example Sentences:
(1) These were an isotonic solution of sodium chloride (900 micrograms NaCl in 0.1 ml), histamine (100 mu g in 0.1 mu l), phytohaemagglutinin (200 mu g in 0.1 ml), and a staphylococcus lysate (STAVA).

(6) Alteration in the temperature of the Isoton diluent in a Coulter model S counter over a range of possible laboratory working temperatures produced a change in the mean corpuscular volume using EDTA and dipotassium acid citrate dextrose blood and a commercial control, 4C.
(7) Bullfrog sympathetic ganglion cells were capable of producing action potentials (Ca spikes) in an isotonic (84 mM) CaCl2 solution.
(8) In the normal Wistar rat, the plasma alpha-MSH level was raised by hypertonic saline injection (as compared with control rats injected with isotonic saline).
(9) Control infusions were of 0.9% saline and isotonic dextran 70 (Pharmacia).
(10) These measurements were repeated on a second occasion following the ingestion of 400 ml of an isotonic lactulose solution.
(11) 10 rats were used as controls and received isotonic NaCl-solution on the same days.
(12) At a second operation, 10 days later, these adhesions were graded and lysed, after which the animals received one of the following solutions intraperitoneally: 5 per cent PEG 4000 (n = 21), 25 per cent PEG 4000 (n = 23), 32 per cent dextran 70 (n = 22) or isotonic saline (n = 25), or were left as an untreated control group (n = 20).
(13) The effect of junctional complexes that are permeable to ions and water on the predictions of the standing-osmotic gradient model for isotonic water absorption is considered.

(16) Since the cumulative natriuretic response to isotonic saline infusion was larger in dogs in positive sodium balance compared to those in negative sodium balance, the failure to detect a difference following hypertonic saline infusion was probably because of the increased plasma sodium concentration.
(17) Thus isotonic heat production first decreased and then increased with increasing tension or tension-time integral.
(18) The authors favor conservative treatment of tennis elbow, starting with cessation of the offending activity and prescription of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and followed by isometric and isotonic exercises when pain and inflammation have subsided.

(20) Measurements were made on locomotor performance (burst run and swim speed, run and swim endurance), morphology (body, tail, and hindlimb length, body mass), and skeletal muscle mechanics (isometric: twitch and tetanic tension, rates of force development and relaxation; isotonic: maximal velocity of shortening and power output) in a size range of individual salamanders (Ambystoma tigrinum nebulosum) at 10 and 20 degrees C. The size dependence of each factor was determined, and the interindividual correlations among factors were measured after removal of size effects.
