Abstract
ASTANDARDIZED procedure utilizing potassium chloride as a stressing agent has been developed to demonstrate steroid-induced adrenal-pituitary axis hypofunction (Collins, 1955a). The data to be presented indicate that the decreased resistance of the steroid-treated animal is the result of an inadequate response of the pituitary gland to the stress and not adrenal hypofunction per se.Keywords
