Abstract | The findings of some investigators have suggested that DDT is capable of altering the stability of the nerve fiber. The present experiment was designated to determine if DDT, carbaryl, and chlordane, could alter the propagated action potential in the nerve fiber and at the synapsis using the superior cervical ganglion preparation of the rat. |
