Baskakov, V P

The aim of the experiments, staged on white rats, was to divulge the difference in the changes of conditioned reflex activity of gravid, suckling, and nongravid animals under the influence of penetrating radiation. After the fixation of conditioned reflexes in rats they were given a single whole-body irradiation in a dose of 250 r. An extinction of conditioned reflexes and a change of conduct toward conditioned and unconditioned stimuli could be revealed. These changes appeared in gravid and suckling rats on the first, seeond, third, and fifth day after the irradiation, in nongravid animals---on the 12th, 13th, and 14th day. Other differences were also observed. (auth)
