Abstract

The administration of anti-insulin serum did not prevent rats from becoming hypoglycaemic following total pancreatectomy combined with partial hepatectomy, and no hyperinsulinaemia was detected. Reversing the order of sequence of the combined operation accelerated the onset of hypoglycaemia; no specific changes were found in plasma free fatty acids levels.
