Normothermia
Description
Normothermia in endotherms is a state when body core temperature is regulated within standard limits. In humans, normothermia is considered as a body temperature of 36.4 to 37.8 °C. Normothermia, however, has a different definition in the context of ectotherms.

Normothermia: from endotherms to ectotherms
Isolated mitochondria and cells in culture are effectively [[ ectothermic. In either case, the physiological background defines the proper normothermic experimental conditions. Many studies on mammalian mt-preparations have been carried out at 25 °C or 30 °C, which are effectively hypothermic. The normothermic temperature of 37 °C is close to the core temperature of many mammals, but should be increased to a higher temperature for many birds.
