| Abstract: | Abstract— Rats kept at 3°C for 24 h show no significant change in the catecholamine content of the adrenals, although the protein content is raised. Whole heart ventricles show no change in noradrenaline content, but the vesicular pellet isolated from heart ventricles has a decreased noradrenaline concentration and DBH activity and an increased protein content. |
