The urinary excretion of catecholamines in Perodicticus potto (1.76-2.94 mug/kg 24 h) is in the same range as in other mammals and the activity of the adrenosympathetic system does not account for the low metabolic rate in this species. The adrenals contain 1.140 +/- 0.14 mug A + NA/mg fresh tissue, of which adrenaline constitutes 94.5 per cent and are thus practically identical to those in Macaca irus. In a cold environment the daily urinary excretion of catecholamines of the tropical but cold hardy potto is only moderately increased.
洛氏懒猴儿茶酚胺的尿排泄量（1.76 - 2.94微克/千克·24小时）与其他哺乳动物处于同一范围，且肾上腺交感神经系统的活动并不能解释该物种代谢率较低的原因。肾上腺中每毫克新鲜组织含有1.140±0.14微克肾上腺素和去甲肾上腺素，其中肾上腺素占94.5%，因此实际上与猕猴的肾上腺情况相同。在寒冷环境中，热带但耐寒的洛氏懒猴儿茶酚胺的每日尿排泄量仅适度增加。
