Abstract:
:Two behavioral experiments were performed to determine if the housing conditions modify taste preferences, body weight gain, food and fluid intake, and alimentary diurnal pattern in adult male rats. In Experiment 1, a two-bottle 24-h preference test (salt, sweet, sour, bitter solutions versus deionized water) was performed in singly, dually or multiply housed rats. In Experiment 2, the same sapid solutions as Experiment 1 and water were contemporaneously offered to singly, dually, or multiply housed rats. Crowded rats drank more water, sweet solution, and total fluid, but less salt solution than singly or dually housed rats during dark and whole-day periods. All rats preferred sour solution, but not bitter solution, to water. In both experiments, crowded rats gained less body weight and ate less food than dually or isolated rats. These results suggest that the housing conditions influence taste preferences, food and fluid intake, body weight gain, but not alimentary diurnal pattern in rats. An important implication of these results is that in experiments in which appetite and taste are dependent variables, all rats should be housed under the same social and environmental conditions.
