The Langley Nicotine test is used to determine the relay-site of autonomic fibers. * The test is the following: First stimulate the preganglionic fiber and notice the response that appears. By adding a large dose of nicotine, the ganglion (site of relay between pre- and postganglionic fibers) is blocked. Now the preganglionic fiber is restimulated again. * If there is still a response, the fiber does not relay in the ganglion. But if there is no response, the fiber relays ("synapses") in the ganglion. * Langley and his colleague William Dickinson found that in sympathetic ganglia, nicotine acts to selectively block nerve conduction, by causing an interruption between the pre-ganglionic and post-ganglionic nerve fibers. They were able to take this information and develop their test to determine the end points of different nerve fibers.* t |
