Abstract

Rats kept on a 23.5-h/day water-deprivation schedule were given 30 min access to four solutions, each on a separate test day, which were comprised of the factorial combination of two temperatures (12° and 37°C) and two NaCl concentrations (150 and 450 mOsm/kg). Food, which was available ad lib, and solution consumption measures were taken. More 37°C 150-mOsm/kg solution, which has the fastest stomach clearance rate of the four, was consumed than of the other three; short-term and long-term food consumption measures were differentially affected by the solution’s temperature and concentration. The hypothesis that cues of preabsorptive satiety originate from stomach distention was supported.
