Abstract: | Young puppies reared in partial isolation for one week from 4–5 weeks of age showed behavioral abnormalities, being hyperactive with diffuse reactions. Significant changes also occurred in the concentration of free amino acids in the sub-cortical areas. These changes were most marked in glutamic acid and GABA, but also appeared in the glutamine and aspartic acid levels. |
