Abstract
Twenty-one-day-old DBA/2J mice, given a blank IP insertion immediately prior to receiving audiogenic seizure stimuli, had a significantly longer latency to Stage 4 seizures (death) than did control mice. A smaller proportion (44%) IP-insertion animals reached Stage 4 than did controls (80%).
