| Abstract: | The construction and use of a specially designed electrode to measure gastric pH in the conscious rat is described. Measurement of gastric hydrogen ion activity with this device is rapid and reproducible in starved rats. A dose-related increase of gastric pH was obtained after s.c. injection of the anticholinergic isopropamide. |
