Comparison of electro-gustometry data and the results of blood glucose studies, sodium and potassium content in saliva and blood, daily excretion of 17-ketosteroids in healthy and sick patients showed that electro-gustometry can be used as a simple approximate method for detecting adrenal insufficiency.

The sodium and potassium content of sea water have been re-determined. The following values are suggested: K/Cl=0.02009±0.0002; Na/Cl=0.5549±0.001.

1. The sodium and potassium content of longissimus dorsi (lumbar), psoas major, rectus femoris, triceps (lateral head) and extensor carpi radialis from 6 pigs each at pork, bacon and manufacturing weights were determined: these varied significantly and systematically between muscles and between groups.2. Since the concentration of potassium may differ by at least 30% between muscles, it is concluded that assessment of total muscle mass may be inaccurate if based on the integration ofγ-ray emission from 40K.

Administration of desoxycorticosterone and NaCl resulted in an increased sodium and potassium content of the aorta in rats becoming severely hypertensive. Equivocally hypertensive animals on this regimen showed smaller increases in sodium and a decrease in potassium. Sodium restriction prevented both hypertension and changes in arterial wall chemistry from occurring in rats receiving desoxycorticosterone. Hypertension per se may be fundamentally associated with an increased potassium and sodium content in artery, as experimental renal hypertension is characterized by a similar electrolyte alteration.
