The Emetic Reflex in a Reptile (Crocodylus Porosus) [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2000 ABSTRACT The emetic (vomiting) reflex in a crocodilian, Crocodylus porosus, was characterised for the first time using the plant alkaloid veratrine (5 mg kg−1i.v. or i.p.) as an emetic stimulus. The latency to the onset of vomiting was 8.0±0.9 min (mean ± S.E.M., N=5 animals).
