Mechanism of Excitation of Aplysia Neurons by Carbon Dioxide

The abdominal ganglion of Aplysia californica was perfused with artificial seawater equilibrated at different P COCO2's and pH's for 5 min or less. 5% CO2 dropped perfusate pH from 8.0 to 6.5 and produced depolarization and increased discharge rate in visceromotor neurons. Half the giant...
