Demand for sucrose in the genetically obese Zucker (fa/fa) rat.

Behavioural processes - 1 Oct 2010

Rasmussen Erin B, Reilly William, Hillman Conrad

Abstract excerpt

Obese Zucker rats (fa/fa) eat more food than lean controls in free-feeding conditions, which strongly influences their phenotypic expression. Few studies, however, characterize their food consumption in environments that are more representative of foraging conditions, e.g., how effort plays a role in food procurement. This study examined the reinforcing efficacy of sucrose in obese Zucker rats by varying the...
