Spanish term or phrase: la prevención del salto condicionado
Appraisal of procedures carried out on rats.

En ratas, no se observaron efectos limitados por la dosis en el procedimiento de Evaluación Global de la conducta, ni hubo indicaciones de sedación o estimulación en el procedimiento del tiempo de sueño por hexobarbital, ni efectos anticonflicto, ni tampoco efectos adversos sobre la actividad locomotora espontánea a dosificaciones de hasta 30 mg/Kg; tampoco se observó deterioro en la prevención del salto condicionado a dosificaciones de hasta 20 mg/Kg.



I can't seem to find much on this - it seems to be to do with the response of rats to certain stimuli. "Startle" "jump"??


For reference, I found one article that seemed to be covering this area:
http://jpet.aspetjournals.org/cgi/content/full/284/2/651

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
