Summary
This work dealtl with the study of the effect of pituitrin on the activity of gastric glands in Pavlov and Heidenhain stomach pouches. The volume of juice is decreased with administration of pituitrin. The latter also reduced the protease activity and increased the lipase activity of the gastric juice: The amount of free hydrochloric acid is diminished and that of the combined hydrochloric acid rises; however, the total hydrochloric acid content and the total acidity remain unchanged. Both specific gravity and dry residue are increased, the latter on account of organic substances.
