Sample recordings from two different sweet-responsive fibers of a dpa CG mouse with one large GS unit and one small GI unit. The recordings include responses of the two units to 0.5 M sucrose (Suc), 0.1 M D-Phe and 20 mM saccharin (Sac), 0.1 M NaCl, 0.01 M HCl and 0.02 M quinine HCl (QHCl) before and after treatment with 7.13 μM Gur for 5 min, and responses to Suc, D-Phe and Sac after rinsing the tongue with 15 mM β-CD for 10 min and after further treatment with 2% Pronase for 10 min. Stimulation started at the point indicated by the arrow.
