Plot of the logarithm of the haemolytic accelerating power against the logarithm of the olfactory threshold (in molecules/cc.). The equation of the line which is drawn in can be deduced from equation (4) if certain approximations are made (Davies and Taylor, 1957). The present work, following the theory of Davies, assumes that the odorant molecules can simply dislocate the olfactory cell membrane, permitting an ex- change of sodium and potassium ions across it. This exchange of ions initiates the nervous impulse as in the general theory of Hodgkin and Katz (1949). Recently, Rideal and Taylor (1958) have shown that the logarithm of the haemolytic accelerating power of a substance is directly proportional to its free energy of adsorption at the oil-water interface; this means that the effectiveness of compounds as haemolytic accelerators depends only on the number of mole-.
