Summary

Tannic acid in concentrations which of themselves have no action potentiates and prolongs the action of adrenaline on the isolated rabbit intestine (inhibitory effect) and on the isolated non-pregnant rabbit uterus (excitatory effect). The adrenaline-pressor effect in the decapitated cat and, in the same species, its stimulant action on the nictitating membrane (either denervated or normal) may also be potentiated by tannic acid. Since the oxidation of adrenalinein vitro is inhibited by tannic acid, it seems that this—in addition to a possible increase of permeability—is mainly responsible for the potentiation of adrenaline.
