A new micro-method was used to determine the effects of cold acclimation of rats on the levels of prostaglandin E2 and F alpha in both white and brown adipose tissues. Whereas PGF alpha levels were significantly higher than PGE2 levels in white fat, no difference between the amounts of the two prostaglandins was observed in brown fat. In both tissues, cold acclimation did not induce any change in prostaglandin levels.
