Dynamic material properties of the tectorial membrane (TM) have been measured at audio frequencies in TMs excised from the apical portions of mouse cochleae. We review, integrate, and interpret recent findings. The mechanical point impedance of the TM in the radial, longitudinal, and transverse directions is viscoelastic and has a frequency dependence of the form 1/(K(j2πf) α ) for 10=<f=<4000...
The tectorial membrane (TM) is a polyelectrolyte gel. Hence, its chemical, electrical, mechanical, and osmotic properties are inextricably linked. We review, integrate, and interpret recent findings on these properties in isolated TM preparations. The dimensions of the TM in alligator lizard, chick, and mouse are sensitive to bath ion concentrations of constituents normally present in the cochlear...
