Example 101

Methods:

Male CD-1 mice, weighing 25-35 g were assessed in the Maximal Electroshock induced Seizure (MES) assay. Briefly, mice were dosed with compound (n=12/group) according to the dosing parameters in Table 20 and the latency to induce tonic hind limb extension following transauricular electrical stimulation (50 Hz, 50 mA, 0.8 sec duration, pulse width of 10 ms) was recorded up to 60 seconds post stimulus. Mean latency to tonic extension data for all compounds are presented in Table 21.
