Figures & data

Figure 1 Changes in plasma cortisol and pCBG concentrations, and FCI in pigs following intravenous administration of adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH; 11.1 μg/kg BW), saline (Saline; 0.9% NaCl), or dexamethasone (Dex; 16 μg/kg BW). Treatment was administered immediately following the 0 h sample. Each point represents the mean value ( ± SEM, n = 7–8 per group). See text for statistical analysis.
