message: I can remove the Cilantro reference, and replace it with broccoli!  First, I want to find the orignal document to cite, though. Here's the article and some snippets, in case the link goes bad. --Mdwyer 01:20, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The original paper is . Definitely worth a cite. —Keenan Pepper 02:25, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, thank you!  Sadly, I no longer have ready access to a research library, and I'm not quite ready to spend $30usd on the article.  I'd like to read the original study before writing anything up.  It seems wrong to cite a study I haven't read. --Mdwyer 05:41, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have access to it through my university, and I think I'm allowed to email you a copy of it. Just don't go distributing it willy-nilly. —Keenan Pepper 05:46, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi, I have a memory of the ability to roll  the tongue being linked with the ability to taste PTC; can anyone provide any further information on this? Rob.desbois 10:28, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

message: This article does very little at explaining how and why PTC is used. Before focusing on the genetic ability to taste this substance, we should at least have some information on how PTC came to prominence.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Teimu.tm (talk • contribs) 17:46, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Answering this qustion eight years too late: PTC isn't "used". It's a substance which occurs naturally in some foodstuffs. It "came to prominence" when it was found that the ability to taste it varies greatly. Maproom (talk) 22:57, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  What is PTC? 

message: I've put the journal references inline, but removed one because the journal has no online presence (not even listed on Medline).
:
I cannot read the article or find reference to it elsewhere and it is not clear why the article is being cited, because the original editor who added the article has not put a reference in the text. If anyone can find a copy of this article and thinks it is worth putting back as an inline citation then please be my guest.--Gak (talk) 06:11, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

message: I think PTC tasting should be merged or redirected to here. It seems like it is a related topic, but I don't personally know too much about chemistry or genetics. Can someone provide some input on a possible merger? Thanks, Natg 19 (talk) 21:29, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: This article is primary genetically and and physiologically, but Phenylthiocarbamide is in the category of chemistry, exclusively.

message: The evolutionary aspect of PTC tasting is missing from this article. Is there any knowledge of how PTC tasting or lack thereof impacts evolutionary fitness? I mean, any genetically determined trait which is significant in a population is or was fitness-enhancing or is inextricably linked to a trait that is or was fitness enhancing. What is the story with PTC tasting? PAR (talk) 14:18, 21 August 2016 (UTC)
