The primary stimuli were tone pips of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 10 kHz; only the 1 kHz CAP amplitude was suppressed significantly by tones of the same frequency. The suppression was seen at 22 DAB, and underwent little relative change with development.Action Potentials-physiologyAging-physiologyAuditory Cortex-physiologyGerbillinaeNeurons, Efferent-physiologyVestibulocochlear Nerve-physiologyDevelopment of contralateral suppression of the VIIIth nerve compound action potential (CAP) in the Mongolian gerbilArticlePublic Health
