Serotonin

Abstract

Adult rats were anaesthetized with chloral hydrate and positioned in a stereotaxic apparatus. The nucleus raphe magnus or obscurus was directly stimulated with 200 µA biphasic electrical pulses of 1 msec through a bipolar electrode. The stimulation usually proceeded for 30 min with a frequency of 10 Hz.
