Further characterization of the effect of the prototypical antidepressant imipramine on the microstructure of licking for sucrose.
We previously reported that treatment with the prototypical antidepressant imipramine induced a dose-dependent reduction of the ingestion of a 10% sucrose solution, due to reduction of the licking burst number, thus suggesting reduced motivation and/or increased satiation.Importantly, the experimental sessions were performed in an alternate order,
