INFLUENCE OF DEUTERIUM-DEPLETED DRINKING DIET ON THE FUNCTIONAL STATE OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM OF ANIMALS UNDER RATE AND NORMOBARIC HYPOXIA WITH HYPERCAPNIA
Keyword(s):
The effect of long-term (42 days) introduction of deuterium-depleted water into the diet of rats on the functional state of the central nervous system under normal conditions and normobaric hypoxia with hypercapnia was studied. It was also established that the use of deuterium-de-pleted water both under normal conditions and after stressful exposure contributes to a sig-nificant decrease in the emotional anxiety of animals. Long-term use of deuterium-depleted water before hypoxic exposure (exposure to the amnestic factor) contributes to the preservation of learning and memory at the control level, i.e. has a pronounced protective antiamnesic effect.
