X Abstract

Abstract   Spatiotemporal response patterns in the anterior and dorsocaudal fields of the guinea pig auditory cortex after two-tone sequences were studied in anesthetized animals (Nembutal 30 mg kg−1) using an optical recording method (voltage-sensitive dye RH795, 12 × 12 photodiode array). Each first (masker) and second (probe) tone was 30 ms long with a 10-ms rise-fall time. Masker-probe pair combinations of the same or different frequencies with probe delays of 30–150 ms were presented to the ear contralateral to the recording side. With same-frequency pairs, responses to the probe were inhibited completely after probe delays of less than 50 ms and the inhibition lasted for more than 150 ms, and the inhibition magnitudes in different isofrequency bands of the anterior field were essentially the same. With different-frequency (octave-separated) pairs, responses to the probe were not inhibited completely even after probe delays as short as 30 ms, and the inhibition lasted only for 110–130 ms. Inhibition magnitudes were different from location to location.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
