    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1994 Jul; 55(7):898-900. PubMed ID: 7978625.
    Abstract:
    Mean conduction velocity of sensory axons of the dorsal penile nerves of clinically normal bulls was determined by recording action potentials evoked by cutaneous stimulation. Locations of stimulating and recording electrodes were standardized. Overall mean +/- SD conduction velocity was 55.1 +/- 5.1 m/s. Mean +/- SD velocity recorded from the distal electrode was 53.3 +/- 4.9 m/s; velocity recorded from the middle electrode was 55.3 +/- 5.0 m/s; and velocity recorded from the proximal electrode was 56.7 +/- 5.1 m/s. Differences among means were not significant. Four bulls had mean conduction velocities of 54.0 m/s and 48.4 m/s before and 3 weeks after castration, respectively.
