Abstract
The parotid ducts and parts of the parotid glands were removed from caries-susceptible and caries-resistant albino rats (R. norvegicus) of the Hunt-Hoppert strains. The elimination of parotid secretions in this manner did not markedly alter the number of days required for the onset of the first macroscopic carious lesion.
