Fig. 8. Effects of temperature and concentration on the density of prilocaine. Depicted are all measurements at least in triplicate per concentration at 5, 20, 30, and 37°C and polynomial curve fits ( P and R 2given in table 1 ). Prilocaine, 10 and 20 mg/ml as commercially available solutions, 15 mg/ml (NaCl) diluted from 20 mg/ml with isotonic saline, 15 mg/ml (aq) diluted from 20 mg/ml with distilled water. Horizontal line = cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) (n = 7) at 37°C; gray bar = 3-SD range.
