Summary
Treatment of rabbits with a single dosis ofβ-Hexachlorcyclohexane prevents, for many days, the apparition in the electro-encephalogramm, of seizure potentials induced by electrical stimulation of an epileptogenic brain area, as well as the apparition of Metrazol seizure potentials. The results of the electrical test showed that theβ-component of the Hexachlorcyclohexane acts chiefly by changing the reactivity of definite diencephalic areas (Thalamus).
