Abstract
Distilled water rinsing after stimulation of the newt pit organ with divalent chloride salts produced neural off-responses. The off-response was selectively depressed by HgCl2 treatment and was not suppressed by a water rinse containing NaCl. The results indicate that the off-response might be due to the removal of the divalent cations bound to the receptor membrane.
