Abstract

Sensitivity of antennular chemoreceptors of the grass shrimp for 5 nitric containing organic matters – amines and pyridines at concentrations ranging from 10-9 to 10-5 М has been studied by electrophysiological method. The threshold concentration for amines and pyridines was 10-7 М. The maximum response of olfactory receptors was solutions to the molar concentration 10-5 - 10-6. Responses of chemoreceptors for all of tested concentrations for amines and pyridines were lower thаn for natural food stimulus.
