Abstract
Mice treated with apomorphine tend to adopt a vertical position in a stereotyped manner. A quantal evaluation of this behaviour, taking into account its frequency and duration, leads to a biphasic dose-response curve that reveals opposite actions of the dopamine agonist.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
