Snake Neurotoxins and Conditioned Taste Aversion in Mice
TLDR
Results indicate 10 and 7.5 μg of cobra venom and 20, and 15 μg of krait venom produce clear-cut CTA in mice.Abstract:
Two recent studies reported that various poisons affecting the central nervous system do not elicit conditioned taste aversion (CTA). To test the validity of this statement, cobra and krait neurotoxins were used as the US in the CTA paradigm and compared with lithium chloride. The results indicate 10 and 7.5 μg of cobra venom and 20, and 15 μg of krait venom produce clear-cut CTA in mice.read more

TL;DR: The present bibliography is an attempt to update earlier reports and brings the literature from 1955 to 1985 into a workable list and excludes interesting and important related topics, e.g., conditioned preferences, mimicry, neophobia, and unconditioned drug effects.

Impact of the Aversive Effects of Drugs on Their Use and Abuse
TL;DR: The present review describes the aversive effects of drugs, the fact that they occur concurrently with reward as assessed in combined taste aversion/place preference designs, the role of aversiveeffects in drug-taking, the dissociation of these affective properties, and the impact of various parametric, experiential, and subject factors on their use and abuse potential.

Learning with prolonged delay of reinforcement
TL;DR: Gustatory aversions, induced in rats by conditionally pairing a distinctive flavor with a noxious drug, were readily established even when injections were delayed an hour or more, suggesting a function of the specific effects of the reinforcer on the organism.

TL;DR: In many ways radiation does not operate as do other noxious stimuli usually employed in avoidance learning situations, and appears to promote learning via some sensory channels more readily than others.
