[Comparison of the electrophysiologic characteristics of retino-collicular and retino-thalamo-cortical divisions of the visual system of Macaca rhesus monkeys]. 1976

In chronic and acute experiments under nembutal anaesthesia, studies have been made on the evoked potentials (EP) elicited by light stimuli in the colliculus superior and in the visual cortex (area 17). It was found that under chronic experiments the EP in the colliculus superior and visual cortex exhibit close (12 +/- 1 and 12 +/- 2 msec. respectively) latent periods; refractory periods determined by paired flashes for both of the parts are equal to 50--70 msec. Critical frequency for EP reproduction of rhythmic flashes in both visual centers is also identical, reaching 20--25/sec. EP with a short latent period equal to that of the EP in the visual cortex were also detected in the frontal and motor cortex, as well as in the hippocamp. The problem of telencephalization of the retinotectal path of the visual system is discussed.

D012032	Refractory Period, Electrophysiological	The period of time following the triggering of an ACTION POTENTIAL when the CELL MEMBRANE has changed to an unexcitable state and is gradually restored to the resting (excitable) state. During the absolute refractory period no other stimulus can trigger a response. This is followed by the relative refractory period during which the cell gradually becomes more excitable and the stronger impulse that is required to illicit a response gradually lessens to that required during the resting state.
