Andreanus A. Soemardji, IG.N.A. Supradja

Abstract

The motoric activity and the curiosity tests on Swiss Webster male mice orally treated with infusion of mushroom panaeolus were studied. A 10% infusion of mushroom administered orally at the dose of 0.5; 1.0 and 2.0 g/kg of body weight showed to decrease in motoric activity and curiousity, but the decrease was less than that shown by diazepam with the dose 5 mg/kg body weight administered intraperitoneally.

Keywords :Mushroom, Panaeolus, motoric activity, curiousity.
