Rats Help Bio-Chemist
With Nutritional Studies
Unknown to many students on campus, a colony of rats
is making its home on the third floor of Frear Laboratory
under the guardianship of Dr. Nollie B. Guerrant, professor
of biological-chemistry.
These rats are used as tools for the experiments made on
vitanui, and nutrition and the

The rat colony was founded
about 39 years ago, mainly for
the study of nutrition. At that
time vitamins were not well
known, but the effects of vita
min deficiency, beri-beri, scur
vy and rickets, were recognized,
Expel iment', are being made to

on the life span of rats. Guerrant'
said it is now known that a better'
diet is needed to grow normally!
and a better diet is needed to re-1
produce and 'ear young. What we'
are looking for is an improved,
diet that will increase the lifel
span of animals and man, he said

to the extensive use of small ani
mals as test subjects and the ap
plication of the findings to the hu
man being," Guerrant said.
Because of their weakened con
ditions caused by induced vitamin
deficiency, the rats arc carefully
guarded against infection. Visi
tors are not permitted to enter
the laboratory, but the rats may be
observed through a large glass
window. Everything that might
possibly come into contact with
the cats is sterilized.
Years ago the rats were often
hollowed for fraternity initia
tions, but this is no longer per
mitted When the rats were re
turned by the fraternities, they
were often infected with a disease
that would spread rapidly through
the entire colony
