“…Pups were anesthetized using halothane and decapitated. Sagittal PC slices (400 m) were cut on a vibratome into a cutting solution (in mM: 83 NaCl, 2.5 KCl, 3.3 MgSO 4 , 1 NaH 2 PO 4 , 26.2 NaHCO 3 , 22 glucose, 72 sucrose, 0.5 CaCl 2 ) equilibrated with 95% O 2 /5% CO 2 (Apicella et al, 2010;Morrison et al, 2013), then incubated in the same solution at 34°C for 30 min before being left at room temperature. Slices were transferred to an open bath recording chamber continuously perfused with artificial CSF (aCSF; in mM: 110 NaCl, 2.5 KCl, 1.3 MgSO 4 , 1 NaH 2 PO 4 , 26.2 NaHCO 3 , 22 glucose, 2.5 CaCl 2 ) heated to 30.0 -32.0°C.…”
