“…A focal origin of AF is supported by experimental models of aconitine and pacing-induced AF 102,103 in which the arrhythmia persists only in isolated regions of atrial myocardium. This theory received minimal attention until the important observation that a focal source for AF could be identified in humans and ablation of this source could extinguish AF.…”

“…Scherf's aconitine experiments subsequently indicated that AF was attributable to "rapid impulse formation in a single center". 6 For different conditions, in 1964 Moe et al 7 reported their widely known computer model results, which indicated that "multiple wavelets" produced AF. Over 2 decades later Allessie et al 8 demonstrated in human and canine atria that multiple interactive wavelets of macro size supported Moe's theory of AF.…”

“…The remaining experiments to be described were carried out to determine whether the ACh formed by the heart played a part in fibrillation caused by aconitine. Scherf et al (1948) showed that when aconitine was injected into the taenia terminalis, auricular fibrillation was produced. We followed their procedure, injecting 25 Hg in 01 ml.…”
