Summary
Short-term experiments were performed on dogs under ether or urethan anesthesia. It was established that a localized bioelectric reaction appeared in the area of g. cruciatum posterior as a result of stimulation of the stomach mechanoreceptors or of electric stimulation of the gastric nerve branches. This reaction may be considered as a primary response. Data on the primary response following stimulation of the stomach may be used for determination of the projection of the stomach receptor fields in the cerebral cortex.
