Rajan Tiwari

Dose are given according to the body weight, you may keep the concentration same.

Rajasekhar Eeda

Generally the dose for mice will be higher compare to rats based on body surface area.

The above statement is for small molecules like drugs, it may vary as per your study design.

Muneeb Faiq

I think Dr. Tiwari is right. IT will depend on the body weight. And by that standard, rats will go with higher amount. Concentration, however, can remain the same.

I don't think surface area has any significant role to play.

Vivek Dubey

Dose depends on body Wt. and metabolism
