    [Peripheral and central factors which modify the taste threshold].

    [Article in Italian]

    Abstract

    Several anatomical, physiological and behavioral factors have part in changing the values of the detection threshold, among which the reflexly secreted oral fluid. The HCl molar concentration appears to be a hyperbolic function of preference (= taste solution/water ratio); the empirical formula of the function makes the HCl molar concentration to be known, at which the same voll. of water and taste solution are drunk, i.e. the taste threshold.
