Continuation of [[SNA Lithium Orotate CTA]].
Test if lithium orotate (LiOr) induces a conditioned taste aversion comparable to LiCl, with a lower dose than SNA experiment
Single pairing of saccharin intake (15 min) after 15-min delay with isomolar doses of LiCl and LiOr to see if LiOr is more potent.
