Multiple sensitivity of chorda tympani fibres of the rat and hamster to gustatory and thermal stimuli

1. Impulse discharges in single chorda tympani fibres of rats and hamsters in response to gustatory stimuli representing the four basic qualities of taste as well as to cooling and warming of the tongue were recorded.
