Electroretinographic study during acute Aramite intoxication of the white mouse. 1979

P Carricaburu, and R Lacroix, and J R Claude, and J Lacroix

Aramite was injected to white mice and the electroretinograms recorded in response to electronic flashes. The following phenomena were remarked: a more and more important flattening of a-waves; a simultaneous collapse of b-waves; a more and more delayed return of a-waves to the isoelectric line; vanishing c-waves. Those actions were explained by an intoxication of the photoreceptors by Aramite and by a resulting difficulty of the photoreceptors to stimulate bipolar cells.

D012160	Retina	The ten-layered nervous tissue membrane of the eye. It is continuous with the OPTIC NERVE and receives images of external objects and transmits visual impulses to the brain. Its outer surface is in contact with the CHOROID and the inner surface with the VITREOUS BODY. The outer-most layer is pigmented, whereas the inner nine layers are transparent.	Ora Serrata
D004596	Electroretinography	Recording of electric potentials in the retina after stimulation by light.	Electroretinographies

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
