Abstract
Summary
Eviscerate rats (250 g) were given continuous intravenous infusions of glucose and insulin during a period of 2 hours. The glucose load was 64 mg of glucose per 100 g of rat per hour and insulin was given at the rate of 4 units per rat per 24 hours. The solution of glucose and insulin was infused at the rate of 20 cc per 24 hours. The addition of isuprel in concentrations of 1:10,000 and 1:25,000 caused a marked decrease in the glucose tolerance of the eviscerate rats.
