The developing rat is hypersensitive to aminoglycoside toxicity, which is expressed early on as a destruction of outer hair cells (OHC). In the current study, distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE), which specifically measure the micromechanical activity of OHCs, were used to assess functional effects of administering a regimen of kanamycin to three groups of neonatal rats representing discrete postnatal developmental periods. In this manner, pigmented rats were treated at postnatal days 1-10, 11-20, and 21-30. A series of input-output (I/O) functions obtained for the 2f1-f2 DPOAE during the post-treatment period indicated that detection thresholds were significantly elevated for the animals treated on postnatal days 1-10 and 11-20, with the greatest elevations observed at the higher test frequencies.
