摘要：

Screening for phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) taste insensitivity was performed and PTC taste threshold values using 13 solutions were obtained for 102 newly detected male diabetics and 103 male non-diabetics aged 21-40 years. The study revealed a significant difference in taste sensitivity to the bitterness of PTC crystals between the diabetics and non-diabetics, the former being less sensitive than the latter (16.7 vs. 6.8%).
