Summary
It was established by experiments on dogs that the intradermal injection of the antigen ofB.coli caused stimulation of receptors. This results in the change of oscillations of the bloelectric potentials of a sensory nerve. These changes take place in intact as well as in divided (peripheral portion) nerves.
Intradermal injection of staphylococcus antigen causes characteristic changes in the action potentials in sensory nerves, which differ from the oscillations of potentials taking place whenB.coli are injected intradermally. Antigens are able to stimulate the skin receptors. There during the process of excitation, the stimulation is transformed and causes changes of biopotentials in the sensory transmitters.
