## Abstract Sprague Dawley rats were given monosodium glutamate (MSG) (4 mg/g) on each of the first 10 days of life and subsequently tested in a swimming maze at 50 days. They appeared less able to learn the maze than littermate controls that had received only saline. Amino acid analyses performed
The activities of the glutamate metabolizing enzymes phosphate-activated glutaminase (PAG) and glutamate dehydrogenase (Gldh) are demonstrated in semithin sections of the rat retina. Highest activities of both enzymes are found in the photoreceptor inner segments, PAG additionally in the outer plexi
