Anti-tussive Citric Acid-Induced Cough
Guinea Pigs are the lowest sentient species with a robust cough reflex. Administration of nebulized citric acid results in an induction of a robust cough response.
Due to the variability of the response in Guinea Pigs, animals are pre-screened, the lowest and highest responders are removed from study and the animals are randomised based on cough count.
