Behavioral and CV responses of female Sprague-Dawley rats to common husbandry and experimental procedures: Lack of effect of the estrous cycle (2001)

Duke, J. L., Zammit, T. G., Lawson, D. M.

Abstract

We conclude that some common husbandry and experimental procedures can induce stress-like physiological changes in female rats but, surprisingly, these changes are affected only slightly or not at all by the stage of the estrous cycle.
