| Abstract: | In Rat, spontaneous secretion of hydrochloric acid by gastric mucosa takes place before birth. From day 20 of gestation until birth, the pH of gastric content markedly decreases, reaching 3 pH-units in newborns. During this period, Cl- concentration in gastric juice increases, while p-CO2 remains constant. |
