Mechanisms of anoxia tolerance in the turtle cortex

The high sensitivity of the mammalian brain and the insensitivity of the turtle brain to O₂ deprivation led to the use of cortical slice preparations in both species being utilized for a comparative study of anoxia tolerance. To assess anoxic survival, intracellular recording techniques were empl...
