title: [On the effect of some inhibitors of proteinbiosynthesis on activity and learning behavior of goldfish (Carassius auratus auratus L)].
abstract: Concerning the problems of learning and memory there is a distinction of a short term memory (STM) and a long term memory (LTM). It is supposed that the STM is an electrical phenomenon, whereas the LTM depends on material changes. The assumed materials are RNA, proteins, lipids, amines etc, and the primary carrier of the information is DNA. But there is a discrepancy: learning-specificity is based on environmental changes, but not the structure of DNA. For the investigation of this, we trained goldfish in a shock-free task to take food from coloured cups under the influence of inhibitors of the proteinbiosynthesis. There was no inhibition on memory-processes in our experiments.
