Long-Term Retention of Conditioned Taste Aversions: Effects of Gustatory Interference

Abstract
The 1 trial conditional pairing of a novel taste (HCl) solution with drug-induced illness (ip injection of cyclophosphamide) induces taste aversions in rats. This aversion is retained after intervals of 15, 45, or 90 days, even when the animals have had experience with similar tastes during the retention interval.
