Evan's blue dye penetration of the olfactory turbinates was determined by an overlay grid (in the sagittal plane) and colorimetric values were analyzed. The dye concentration visualized in the HC animals was arbitrarily assigned a baseline reference value of 1(*). We compared the relative amount of dye visualized in the H-Tx and SD animals to this reference value. These two groups had several fold increase of dye concentration in turbinates compared to HC animals. | |||
