Abstract
Some normal values of blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration rate obtained from 37 anaesthetised marmosets, are reported together with results of the electrocardiograms of 6 marmosets. The effects of a variety of pharmacological agents are also reported.
The suitability of the anaesthetised marmoset as a representative of the primate order for the pharmacological evaluation of drugs that affect the cardiovascular and respiratory systems is discussed.
