Abstract
1. Atropine in a dosage of 400 mgm./kgm. protects mice against 1.33 mgm./kgm. of strychnine.
2. The percentage of recoveries varies with the time interval between the injection of atropine and strychnine. It is maximal when this interval is one hour. Some protection is however obtained after an interval of 48 hours.
3. The significance of this is discussed.
