Abstract |
25 Wistar rats were subjected twice daily to epileptic seizures induced by the convulsant gaz Flurothyl. Compared with littermates of the same sex and birth weight, the brain of seizure-treated rats showed a reduction of 6% (5.2 million cells) after 5 days and 17.6% (33.4 million cells) after 10 days of treatment.
