Simplified Procedure for Measuring the Effect of Gustatory Perception on Parotid Gland Flow Rate

Parotid flow rate resulting from sipping 1.0% citric acid solution was regressed on the rate of stimulus application. A linear relationship was found between flow rate and the logarithm of the application rate. This simpler stimulation procedure may be substituted for the more variable swab method.
