Examples of ABR waveforms from NE (A–D) and E (E–H) rats at all ages and frequencies evaluated. The NE3 (A), NE6 (B), and E3 © animals, previous any noise exposure, showed typical waveform patterns which consisted of 4 to 5 evoked waves after stimulus onset. At 12 (C) and 18 (D) months of age, NE rats had an age-related decrease in wave amplitudes at all frequencies. However, in the exposed animals such a reduction was already apparent at 6 months (F) and it was more evident at 12 (G) and 18 (H) months of age for the higher frequencies when compared to NE rats.
