Abstract

The pancreatic secretory response to the Garlic allicin dietary supplement under the conditions of an experiment with chickens implanted with pancreatic duct chronic fistulas has been studied. The results prove that the amylolytic and proteolytic activities increase the secretion at 1 mL in chickens in the test period (8 days). However, there is no significant change in the total volume of juice for 180 minutes. The analysis of the adaptation mechanism in the postprandial phase indicates an enzyme activity increase in the complex reflective cycle caused by both the receptors responding to the food tastes and the conditioned reflex factors. The adaptation developed within 8 days is associated with a sharp (twofold) increase in the proteolytic activity on the third day and the following proteinase activity decrease up to the initial rate of the enzyme activity.
