Comparison of changes in electroencephalographic measures during induction of general anaesthesia: influence of the gamma frequency band and electromyogram signal.

abstract：:Studies with an emulsion formulation of ICI 35 868 (2,6- diisopropylphenol ) indicate that this new formulation has anaesthetic properties in rats and mice, and haemodynamic effects in the mini-pig which are similar to those of the previously available Cremophor formulation.
