In mice a new method for 2 x 4-channel surface electromyography (ENIG) recordings of the vastus lateralis and biceps femoris muscles during locomotion on a treadmill with varying speed is presented. The approach involves high-speed-videography (sampling interval 2.5 ms) in concert with the application of chronically implanted surface EMG multi-electrodes (EMG sampling rate 4000 Hz, frequency range 10-700 Hz). The recordings are started 2 days after surgery and finished 2 weeks after surgery. During the whole investigation period ENIG recordings of both muscles have been possible. The monopolar EMG activities recorded by the electrode-arrays and the bipolar EMG signals derived from the monopolar activities permit an evaluation of the extent of myo-electrical activation in larger regions of both muscles and co-ordination between the flexor and extensor muscles. Bipolar EMG signals indicate propagation of activities along the muscle fibers and a slight effect of non-propagating signal components. Thus, the cross talk between these muscles is small and does not influence the evaluation of the EMG results. The resolution of the simultaneously recorded synchronized data allows a precise temporal correlation of kinematic and EMG parameters. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
