Fresh-water Fish Chemoreceptors Responsive to Dilute Solutions of Electrolytes

I N T R O D U C T I O N The palatal chemoreceptors of the carp display a rather peculiar type of response to varying concentrations of electrolytes (Konishi and Niwa, 1964). Dilute solutions of salts, especially those with polyvalent anions such as Na3citrate and Na 2 HP04 , produced strong responses. However, an increase in concentration depressed receptor activity, although the activity incre...
