The enquiry was directed to answering the following questions:― 1. What is the comparative value of different food substances in evoking the chemical secretion of the stomach? 2. What channels of absorption are available for the different food substances? Experiments in a previous communication to the Society indicated that the mucous membrane of the pyloric end of the stomach contained the gastric hormone, and was therefore probably a channel of absorption. No direct proof was at that time able to be adduced.
