Abstract
An anesthetic combination of ketamine and promazine was tested in 25 male and 25 female mice of each of 2 strains. The mean induction time was 5 min for the C57BL/6We mouse and 8 min for the DBA/2We mouse. No sex differences were observed. The mean duration time was 45 min for the C57BL/6We male, 53 min for the C57BL/6We female, 29 min for the DBA/2We male and 35 min for the DBA/2We female. The mean recovery time was 39 min for the C57BL/6We male, 38 min for the C57BL/6We female, 21 min for the DBA/2We male and 24 min for the DBA/2We female. The drug combination provided effective anesthesia for these strains of the laboratory mouse for a period of 30-50 min after a single i.m. injection.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
