Detailed Rat Strain Information (Blood Pressure and Body Temperature)
Strain Name F344/Stm(F) 
Systolic Blood Pressure (mmHg) 127  ± 7
Heart Rate (1/min) 480  ± 62
Body Temperature ( ‹C) 38.6  ± 0.3
value ± SD 

Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and heart rate (HR) were measured by tail-cuff method using a non-preheating non-invasive blood pressure manometer for rats (MK-2000, Muromachi Kikai Co., Ltd.). The average data of 3 measurements were determined for individual animals.

Body temperature was measured rectally using a digital thermometer.
