Any other information on results incl. tables

After the first injection, the animal recovered from the general anesthesia in 12 hours. Twenty four hours later the dose was repeated from which recovery occurred after 24 hours sleep. Five days later the same dose did not produce sleep. On the 12th day 0.4 cc. of the solution did not produce sleep, and on the 26th day 1.0 cc. produced deep anaesthesia until death of the animal 24 hours later.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Sublethal doses of quinoline produces anaesthesia in the rabbit and a tolerance is observed when doses are repeated.
Executive summary:

Sublethal doses of quinoline were administered to 1 rabbit by ip, general anaesthesia is observed and a tolerance is also produced when the doses are repeated.
