Abstract
The spinal cords of cats were asphyxiated for various times at normal body temp. and at approx. 10[degree] lower. The damage to the cord as indi-cated by changes in its reflex activity, metabolism and histological structure caused by a 35-min. asphyxiation at 38[degree] is more severe than that after a 120-min. asphyxiation at 27[degree]. The processes causing the cord damage have a large temp. coefficient.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
