What's the difference between gustation and gustatory?

Gustation


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of tasting.

Example Sentences:

  • (11) These data strongly support the view that the gustative alliesthesia may be connected with short term satiety.
  • (12) After Zn therapy the MDA levels lowered by 23.55%, and the clinical score and gustative test improved significantly: chi 2 = 16.98, p less than 0.01 (for gustative test), chi 2 = 31.84, p less than 0.001 (for clinical score).
  • (13) The mechanism of gustative alliesthesia is partially unknown; the data presented here suggest the participation of intestinal chemoreceptors specific for amino acids.
  • (14) The results show that fibers of these two cranial sensory nerves supplying the mandibular barbels converge centrally on the medial portion of the FL, indicating that the FL of the Japanese sea catfish is a highly differentiated center for both gustation and somatosensation.
  • (15) Recent evidence suggests that autonomic reflexes involving sensations such as olfaction and gustation may be cortically mediated via centripetal pathways to brainstem autonomic centers.
  • (16) In obese subjects, ingestion of glucose did not cause the transformation of the gustative sucrose sensation from pleasant to unpleasant as in normal subjects.
  • (17) 3) The gustative receptors and the gastro-intestinal glucoreceptors are stimulated by glucose, which produces an insulin release.
  • (18) The clinical tests used were the gustative test for ZnSO4 1% and a clinical severity score.
  • (19) In the study of the neural code for gustation, it has been suggested that the pattern of responsiveness across fibers or units in the neural pathway for taste may provide the basis for identification and discrimination among taste qualities.
  • (20) Neither odour stimulated flow above that elicited by either mastication or mastication with gustation.

Gustatory


Definition:

  • (a.) Pertaining to, or subservient to, the sense of taste; as, the gustatory nerve which supplies the front of the tongue.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) These differences in central connectivity mirror the reports on behavioral dissociation of the facial and vagal gustatory systems.
  • (2) Umami taste appears to signal, at the gustatory level, the intake of proteins, therefore the working hypothesis was: does umami taste of a monosodium glutamate (MSG) solution elicit changes in both glucagon and insulin release, similar to those elicited by amino acids, and consequently, changes in plasma glucose and in overall cellular metabolism?
  • (3) The test subjects ate up their food appraising the gustatory qualities of the diet constituents.
  • (4) This region of the NST is innervated by primary gustatory axons arising from the facial-intermediate nerve.
  • (5) The CGRP-IR levels in the rostral (gustatory) part of the insular cortex were increased significantly by strongly aversive taste stimuli such as quinine hydrochloride and conditioned taste stimuli (NaCl and sucrose) which animals had been taught to avoid.
  • (6) The most common group of neurons within the gustatory zone contains both large (X1) and small (X3) members that possess deeply invaginated nuclear profiles.
  • (7) We previously reported a modality-specific layering of leg sensory axons in the CNS of the flies Phormia regina and Drosophila melanogaster with tactile and gustatory axons projecting into a ventral layer and the proprioceptive hair plate axons into an intermediate layer.
  • (8) Thus the anterior island is a gustatory association area involved in the subjective recognition of gustatory modalities.
  • (9) It is evident, that the gustatory fibres from the posterior part of the tongue run in the IX nerve and those from the soft palate reach the medulla oblongata via the petrosal and facial nerve.
  • (10) Since sodium ion transport under hyperosmotic conditions has been shown to correlate well with the gustatory neural response, the variety of ions transported may likewise indicate a wider role for transport in taste transduction.
  • (11) These results suggest that chemical substances can rapidly penetrate the tongue epithelium of the frog, reach the papillary nerve fibers and contribute or modify gustatory informations.
  • (12) In the thalamus, the subparafascicular, gustatory, and midline nuclei receive a light innervation from the SI, which projects more densely to the medial part of the mediodorsal nucleus and the reticular nucleus.
  • (13) A mutant strain of Wistar rats which carries an autosomal gene defect is characterized by a progressively developing hyperexcitability, tremor, olfactory and gustatory movements, bradykinesia, ataxia and a pathologically increased muscle tone of hindlimbs which can be measured by recording tonic activity in the electromyogram (EMG) of the gastrocnemius-soleus muscle.
  • (14) We describe 150 patients, the results of gustatory tests and the frequency of disorders of taste.
  • (15) Since gustatory-visceral afferent information reaches insular cortex via 2-3 synaptic relays, autonomic, olfactory and gustatory inputs may interact at this level, and, as suggested previously for the mouse, play a key integrative role in flavor perception.
  • (16) In the rostral, gustatory division of the NST, the rostral central subdivision contains the greatest number of labelled pontine-projection neurons.
