Changes in thermogenesis and its hormonal regulators during the postnatal development of rabbits and guinea pigs

The studies carried out on 48 rabbits and 87 guinea pigs, during first weeks of their postembryonic life, were aimed to find the causes of the considerable differences in capacity of the newborns of these two species to maintain thermal homeostasis. W badaniach przeprowadzonych na 48 królikach i 87 świnkach morskich poszukiwano przyczyn różnej zdolności do utrzymania homeostazy termicznej przez noworodki tych gatunków.
