ADAPTATION OF CUTANEOUS TACTILE RECEPTORS : V. THE RELEASE OF POTASSIUM FROM FROG SKIN BY MECHANICAL STIMULATION.
Potassium is released from the epithelial cells of frog's skin on stimulation by an interrupted air jet. This evidence is consistent with the hypothesis that potassium is involved in the adaptation of the tactile nerve endings in frog's skin.
