Popis: Evoked potentials in the frog medulla to stimulation of the glossopharyngeal nerve appear on the ipsilateral side in a zone of limited area. They are recorded at depths not exceeding 2000 µ. Depending on their form the surface evoked potentials are divided into two groups, negative and positive—negative, differing from each other in their parameters and properties. During insertion of the microelectrode the phase of the negative potential is changed. The principal slow components of the responses reflect postsynaptic processes. The first fast wave of the evoked potential is regarded as the presynaptic component. Differences in the properties of the evoked potential recorded at different points are determined by the neuromorphological heterogeneity of the structures of the primary center.
