Abstract

To clarify the effects of ozone on behavior, drinking activity was observed continuously in animals exposed to ozone at concentrations of 0.2, 0.4, and 0.8 ppm for 1 wk. Drinking decreased considerably on the first day after onset of exposure. On the first day the suppression rate was calculated to be 28.1%, 69.5%, and 93.1%, for the 0.2 ppm, 0.4 ppm, and 0.8 ppm group, respectively. The suppression of drinking and recovery were dependent on the concentration of ozone.
