The effect of cold adaptation at 4 degrees C on cyclopropane MAC was studied in 10 Wistar rats over a 16-week period. Compared with a similar control group (normally adapted), there was a significant decrease in weight gain and a significant increase in anaesthetic requirement in the cold-adapted rats.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
