Abstract
The formaldehydogenic method for the detn. of urinary corticoids was modified and made more sensitive. With this method and the phosphomolybdic acid method, the guinea pig was found to be a suitable laboratory animal for the study of corticoid excretion provided his diet was free of colored vegetables. ACTH and epinephrine increased the corticoid excretion within 24 hrs.Keywords
