Abstract
In spinal mice the latent period between decapitation and the disappearance of all spinal reflexes decreases regularly with increasing age (Fig. 1). Available evidence indicates that this latent period may be proportional to the capacity for anaerobic metabolism at various ages.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
