title: Electrical responses to taste chemicals across the dorsal epithelium of bullfrog tongue.
abstract: Stimulation of the bullfrog tongue with taste chemicals produced a slow change in transepithelial potential difference across the dorsal epithelium. The potential profile was in many respects similar to that of the intracellularly recorded potential changes in taste cells and to the activity of taste fibers in frogs.
