Further attempts to produce achlorhydria

In the attempt to find a method of producing experimental achlorhydria, we studied the effects of a large variety of substances on the gastric secretion of man and dog. Although a diminution of acid secretion has been produced in some instances, no method that is practical for clinical use has yet been found. We wish to express our appreciation to Miss Vivian Bass for her technical assistance. Part of the expense of this investigation was defrayed by contribution from the E. L. Dawes Fund.
