Figure 1.
Photographs of the Delrin plastic housing and cap unassembled (A) and assembled (B) with a Star-Oddi DST nano-T probe. A clear window in at the end of the probe allowed the temperature sensor to be oriented toward the ventral surface of the tail. The housing was glued on each side of the tail at a consistent distance from the base (C & D). E, A representative graph from an individual OVX mouse shows wide fluctuations in TSKIN. The dark phase is indicated by black bars. Scale bar in A = 10 mm, applies to A.
