Pilot study to examine 2-bottle preferences for different carbohydrates and sweetners in guinea pigs.
Protocol: 1117
2013-3: Experiment Postponed indefinitely
Dates: 2013-3-11 to 2013-3-28
n= 4 male guinea pigs
24-h 2-bottle tests, 2 days per comparison; 8 comparisons = 16 days total
2 liters per day of each solution.
Comparisons:
- water vs. water
- 8% maltodextrin vs. water
- 8% maltose vs. water
- 8% glucose vs. water
- 8% sucrose vs. water
- 8% maltose vs. glucose
- 0.8% sucralose vs. water
- 0.125% saccharin vs. water
- 0.05% saccharin in kool-aid vs. water
Chemicals needed:
sucralose (0.8% = 16 g/ 2 liter/ day = 32 g total)
maltose (8% = 160 g/ 2 liter/day x 4 = 640 g total) Sigma M5885-1KG $148.00
maltodextrin (Lo Dex-10) (8% = 160 g/ 2 liter/day x 2 = 320 g total) Bio-Serv #3585 $75
glucose (8% = 160 g/ 2 liter/day x 4 = 640 g total)
