THE EFFECT OF “DARSTINE” ON PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE IN ALBINO MICE

摘要

The compound "Darstine" was tested for effect on physical performance using the swim test in mice. It was found that in doses of about 20 mg. per kg. swimming performance was increased about four-fold. At higher doses of about 100 mg. per kg. swimming performance was significantly inhibited. The mechanism by which "Darstine" an. atropine like compound, exerts its effect on physical performance is not clear.
