Abstract
⺠Ammonia induces network excitation and desynchronization on microelectrode arrays. ⺠Astrocytic glutamine metabolism might be involved in network excitation. ⺠Inhibiting NMDA-receptors protects against network excitation and desynchronization. ⺠Microelectrode arrays might help to find protective strategies in ammonia toxicity.
