Abstract
Rabbits have a high rate of ventilation which makes it difficult to obtain a sample of end-tidal gas by the usual procedures. An occlusion technique was developed which provided a gas sample equivalent to an end-tidal gas sample. MAC values were determined using this sampling method. The values obtained±SEM were: cyclopropane 15.6±1.7%, halothane 0.63±0.06% and ether 2.7±0.2%.Keywords
