[Comparison of the reflex responses to unexpected stimulation (startle reflexes) in freely moving and chloralose-anesthetized cats].
Comparative study of startle reflexes recorded electromyographically in the same cat was performed under two different experimental conditions: in freely moving animal and after chloralose-anesthesia. A remarkable similarity in the component composition and temporal parameters (latency, duration) of the EMG responses in these two cases was found. The data obtained suggest the functional similarity of startle reflex discharges in freely-moving and anesthetized cats as well as the identity of their corresponding neural mechanisms.
