Abstract
Two additional studies are described which add to the original report that female rats consume greater quantities of sweet solutions of glucose and saccharin during successive 24-hr. periods than do males. The results justify the following conclusions: (1) the original results obtained with Holtzman rats can be extended to the Charles River strain and (2) females consume greater quantities of a saccharin solution during relatively brief 1-hr. taste preference tests.Keywords
