Computerized topo-EEG spectral maps: difficulties and perspectives.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Rasagiline and selegiline are classified as monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitors. The present investigation deals with time-dependent electrical frequency changes (electropharmacograms) induced by these, as well as by aminoindan, the major metabolite of rasagiline. METHOD:Adult rats (day-night converted, ...
