Abstract excerpt
1. Strain differences of mice were found in the taste synergism between monosodium L-glutamate (MSG) and disodium 5'-guanylate (GMP). 2. Magnitudes of chorda tympani responses to the mixture of MSG and GMP over the sum of responses to each component were greater in the order of C3H/HeSlc(C3H) gre...
