Abstract
Rates of protein synthesis were measured in mammary gland, liver, intestinal mucosa and muscle of lactating rats by using a flooding dose of [3H]phenylalanine that was injected into diethyl ether-anaesthetized dams via a lateral vein or into undisturbed dams via a jugular cannula. Ether anaesthesia did not alter rates of protein synthesis significantly in any tissue.
