The disappearance of thigmonastic mobility of a sensitive plant, Mimosa pudica L., caused by volatile anesthetic agents such as methoxyflurane, chloroform, halothane, enflurane or sevoflurane revealed that the response to anesthetic agents in plants maybe similar to that in animals. In terms of reversible anesthesia, animals seem to equal plants in order of potency of anesthetics, and the minimum immobilizing concentration (MIC; %) in the plant shows a good correlation with MAC in the human (MICplant = 5.8 MAChuman + 0.01, r2 = 0.946). These phenomena suggest the existence of a certain common mechanism in anesthesia between animals and plants.
由挥发性麻醉剂如甲氧氟烷、氯仿、氟烷、恩氟烷或七氟烷引起的敏感植物含羞草的感震运动消失表明，植物对麻醉剂的反应可能与动物相似。就可逆性麻醉而言，在麻醉效力顺序上动物似乎与植物相当，并且植物中的最低固定浓度（MIC；%）与人类的最低肺泡有效浓度显示出良好的相关性（MIC植物 = 5.8×MIC人类 + 0.01，r2 = 0.946）。这些现象表明动物和植物在麻醉方面存在某种共同机制。
