ExcerptRelevanceReference
"This work evaluates the seizure susceptibility of nai;ve female Wistar Audiogenic rats (WARs), a genetic model of reflex epilepsy in which seizures are induced by high-intensity sound stimulation (120 dB SPL), to other pro-convulsive stimuli: transauricular electroshock (ES), pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) and pilocarpine (PILO)."3.72Assessment of the seizure susceptibility of Wistar Audiogenic rat to electroshock, pentyleneterazole and pilocarpine.
