title: Spread of cobalt from a cortical epileptic lesion induced by a cobalt-gelatine implant into the frontal cortes of the rat.
abstract: The spread of cobalt ions from cobalt induced epileptic foci in rats has been investigated. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry and heavy-metal histochemistry reveal cobalt ions spread very widely from the focus. Biochemical and physiological consequences for this model of epilepsy are discussed.
