We present the main results of a study of time-resolved spectra of 43 intense
GRBs detected by BATSE. We considered the 4-parameter Band model and the
Optically Thin Synchrotron Shock model (OTSSM). We find that the large majority
of time-resolved spectra of GRBs are in remarkable agreement with the OTSSM.
However, about 15 % of initial GRB pulses show an apparent low-energy photon
suppression. This phenomenon indicates that complex radiative conditions
modifying optically thin emission may occur during the initial phases of some
GRBs.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, Paper presented at the 5th Huntsville Symposium,
