V. C. KARUNAKARAN AND S. DURAIRAP

Abstract

Chlorpyifos with an intra peritoneal injection of drugs such as atropine, 2-pyridine aldoxime methiod ides, reserpine and propranolol separately elicited tremor and rectal temperature in Rettus norvesicus. The rate of tremor was high (p <0.05) at 24 h in chlorpyrifos treatment alone as compared to drug treatments. Similarly high temperature was also recorded in chlorpyrifos with reserpine treatment.
