Optimal dose of Kanamycin for protection from noise induced hearing loss

Young CBA/J mice were injected with kanamycin under varying schedules then exposed to noise in order to determine the boundary conditions for cochlear protection against noise.

Genetic influences on early cochlear vulnerability to noise and protection from noise by low-dose kanamycin in hybrid mice

Experiments evaluated both noise vulnerability and the extent of protection from noise by sub-chronic low-dose kanamycin in young F1 hybrids resulting from a cross between C57BL/6J and CBA/J inbred mice.
