Response patterns of olfactory bulb neurons to stimulation of distilled water and odorous solutions.
Responses of 50 olfactory bulb neurons of the bullfrog to odorous solutions of ethyl n-butyrate were composed mainly of facilitation, inhibition and no response, whereas those of the same neurons to water were mainly of facilitation and delayed facilitation. The responses to water tended to continue longer than those to the odorous solutions.
