Figure 2. Effect of Ptx venom dose on rat respiration rate.

Figure 2

Venom injected into a hind foot of each anaesthetized rat caused an approximately linear decline in respiration frequency before sudden arrest with the slope of the decline shallower at the lower venom dose (n = 16 & 7 for 1 mg/kg & 0.4 mg/kg respectively).
