title: Low dose of ethanol induces conditioned place preference in rats after repeated exposures to ethanol or saline injections.
abstract: Using the place conditioning paradigm (biased design), we have shown that five conditioning sessions with ethanol (0.5 or 1.0 g/kg i.p.) did not result in place conditioning response. In contrast, rats that received 20 injections of ethanol (0.5 g/kg) or saline, before the conditioning procedure, showed significant place preference to the compartment paired with 0.5 g/kg ethanol (but not 1.0 g/kg).
