Summary: | The paper describes a model of motion sickness for dogs. The method is based on the simultaneous use of vertical and rotatory movement of the device with a continuously varying angular velocity of rotation to generate Coriolis acceleration. The exposure increases significantly the number of sick animals to be used in the selection of antimotion drugs. Diphenidol, marezine, tigane, bromotigane and metachloropromide were tested. Diphenidol and to a lesser extent marezine and metachloropromide proved effective. Tigane and bromotigane were ineffective against motion sickness. |
