Measurements of core temperature in spontaneously hypertensive rats by radiotelemetry (1990)

Berkey, D. L., Meeuwsen, K. W., Barney, C. C.

Abstract

Handling and restraint can cause significant increases in core temperature. When SH [spontaneously hypertensive] rats are not stressed or disturbed, their core temperatures are not significantly different from that of normotensive WKY [Wistar-Kyoto] rats.
