THE LEVEL OF ADRENOCORTICOTROPHIN IN THE PLASMA OF NORMAL AND ADRENALECTOMIZED RATS

Abstract
SUMMARY: The concentration of ACTH in the plasma of both normal and adrenalectomized rats appears to be less than 5 milliunits/100 ml. The results suggest, but do not prove, that the levels of adrenocorticotrophin were identical in the two groups of animals.
