Effects and Mechanisms of Tastants on the Gustatory-Salivary Reflex in Human Minor Salivary Glands

Table 4

Increases in BF change induced by tastant of No. 5.

		S (sweet)	N (salty)	T (sour)	Q (bitter)	G (umami)
No. 5	S (sweet)	-	0.991	<0.00	0.717	<0.00
	N (salty)		-	<0.00	0.926	<0.00
	T (sour)			-	<0.00	0.791
	Q (bitter)				-	<0.00
	G (ummai)					-

Statistical differences were analysed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s honestly significant difference test; numerical value means value between one tastant and another: (asterisk means significant; .
