Anatomy of Taste
papillae are not taste buds

Anatomy of TasteFour primary types of papillae:
• Vallate (or Circumvallate)- large, near back of tongue
• Foliate- on side of tongue
• Fungiform- larger, ‘mushroom’ shaped- “buds”
• Filiform- cover majority of tongue and
does not contain taste buds- used for mechanical grinding

Anatomy of Taste
taste buds (3)
papillae (plural)papilla (singular)
Fungiform papillae each have ~ 1-5 taste buds eachOthers can contain many more - up to 100 each
Each taste bud consists of 50 - 150 taste receptor cells
Taste buds are located within the papillae

hydroxy alpha sanshool
The sanshool chemicals, such as alpha-hydroxy-sanshool from the Japanese Sanchoo pepper and other Asian peppers, are particularly interesting because they not only give a hot sensation in the mouth cavity but also a tingling effect on the tongue
