Description Inhaled anaesthetics are recognized greenhouse gases. The study was conducted to assess the total mass of isofluraneat different FGF rate (1, 1.5 and 2 L/min) scavenged into   the atmosphere in the canine anaesthesia. The total mass of isoflurane scavenged into atmosphere was measured by employing infrared absorption technique using Schiller ArgusMultigas Monitor. The total quantity of isoflurane used in 1 MAC-hour basis was then multiplied by the GWP20 ofisoflurane, and expressed as CDE20 in gram. The mean ±SE (g/h) of isoflurane scavenged into the atmosphere duringcanine anaesthesia was 12.07±0.04, 13.13±0.30 and 15.26±0.29 at FGF rate 1, 1.5 and 2 L/min, respectively. The mean ± SE CDE20 (g/h) of isoflurane at FGF rate 1, 1.5 and  2 L/min was 16,912.41±49.42, 18,394.87±422.81 and20,087.63±410.27, respectively. From this study, it was concluded that, isoflurane at 1 L/min could be better FGF ratein canine surgical anaesthesia to reduce the environmental global warming impact of isoflurane.
