Der Einfluß von Insulin, Glucagon und Sekretin auf die intestinale Glucoseresorption

Abstract

The authors describe a versatile experimental procedure for the study of intestinal digestion and resorption in animals. This procedure is based on the principle of the continuous perfusion of a completely isolated intestinal segment. The results from experiments on glucose absorption from the jejunum of the rabbit serve to demonstrate the great reproducibility of this in vitro technique. No hormonal influence on monosaccharide resorption could be detected by means of this procedure, even in case of unphysiologic dosage of insulin, glucagon and secretin.
