A total of 56 rats was divided into three groups: 1) exposure groups (n=32): 16 animals per exposure group, 2) sham exposure group (n=16) and 3) cage control group (n=8). Five to seven weeks after the last exposure (during this time interval the memory tests were performed), the animals, at an age of 18-20 months, were anaesthetized and killed.
