ABSTRACT
The changes of rheobase(Rh), chronaxie(Chr), standard electrical quantity(a) and mtensity-duration curve(i. t. c) were studied for understanding the effect of aging on the excitability of sciatic and caudal nerves in Wistar rats of different age. The results show that before grown-up excitability of the peripheral nerves increases progressively with age, after that it tends to decrease. Chronaxie as an index can not reflect the change of excitability of the peripheral nerves correctly.
