title: Contraction of cat nictitating membrane by tetramisole.
abstract: Tetramisole produced a dose-dependent persistent contraction of cat nictitating membrane. This was not significantly altered by prior adrenalectomy or reserpinisation and tyraminisation, but was abolished by prior alpha blockade.
