Concentrations: Scopolamine Caffeine Ethanol Morphine sulfate Diazepam
S- 1 mg/kg C- 20mg/kg E- 1g/kg, diluted by half distilled water MS- 5mg/kg IM injection D-2.5 mg/kg

Stimulants=10 mins
Alcohol=5 mins
Diazepam = 3 mins
Activity- squares entered
anxiety- number of inner/outer squares
Temperature
base of tail, infrared
alcohol, opiates
Stimulant: increase temp
Alcohol: lower temp
opiates: higher
