The effect of age and streptozocin concentration on the induction by streptozocin of hyperglycaemia in fasting rats is investigated. The data show that there is a dose dependent effect of streptozocin on the hyperglycaemia induced by streptozocin, and 60 mg/kg streptozocin is significantly more effective than 20 or 40 mg/kg streptozocin in inducing hyperglycaemia. Moreover, the hyperglycaemia induced by 60 mg/kg streptozocin is greater in 8 week old rats than in 4 or 6 week old rats, suggesting an influence of age on streptozocin-induced hyperglycaemia.
