  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Since the advent of the electrogustometer (modified Krarups apparatus) was made quan-itative measurement of taste is, now, possible. The results obtained from these measurements are as follow:

 1. In the examination of 120 normal persons whose ages ranging from 13 to 75, the taste threshould appeared to be increased with age advance. No significant threshold difference was found between the right and left sides of the tongue.

 2. When the chorda tympani nerve is sectioned on one side, no sensation was left on the corresponding side of the tongue until the stimulating current is increased to 300μA.

 3. From these results the author considers the normal limit as being set at 70μA, between 70 and 300μA as hypoageusia and over 300μA as ageusia.

 4. However, it appeared to be an impossibi lity in obtaining any valuable information con cerning the prognosis on Bell's palsy based on the results of taste determinations.
