Representative EMG and evoked potentials with and without eEmc. Representative raw EMG and evoked potentials from the soleus and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles without eEmc from one spinal rat during (A) sitting, (B) attempted bipedal standing, and with eEmc (1.5 V, 40 Hz between L2 and S1) during (C) sitting, (D) bipedal standing, and (E) quadrupedal (Quad) stepping-like movement during the 6-hr recording period in its home cage. (F) Representative EMG and evoked potential from the soleus and TA from the same rat during body weight supported bipedal treadmill stepping facilitated by eEmc (2.0 V, 40 Hz between L2 and S1). The start of each trace with eEmc is synchronized with the initiation of the eEmc pulse. Each trace is 25 msec, i.e., the time between successive eEmc pulses. The arrow placed on the EMG signals denotes the time of the initial 25 msec scan.
