Same type of study was conducted with 7 Zebra finches to study the effect of NO on the perfusion levels in their brood patch.   Like Jungle fowls, there were large fluctuations in the resulting curve due to the ventilation. But unlike Jungle fowls, Zebra finches are so tiny that no other spot could be detected with minimum movement.The following graph shows the effect of NO on the perfusion levels in the brood patch of 7 non which gave inconclusive results and hence perfusion levels could not be measured efficeintly.
