Urinary indican in healthy Indian subjects.

Forty normal subjects have been taken for the present study. The mean Indican excretion was 40.45 mg/24 hrs. The mean jejunal count was 1.96 x 10(3) +/- 5.39 x 10(3) organisms/ml and 40% of the jejunal aspirates were sterile. Wide range of bacteria were cultured bu the coliform organisms were obtained in only 16.6%. There was a significant correlation between Indican excretion and total bacterial count (P less than .01).

A study of pancreatic enzymes by duodenal intubation in normal subjects after prostigmine administration.

Twenty healthy subjects have been selected for the present study. There was significant parallelism between trypsin and lipase secretion but frequent dissociation between trypsin and amylase. Lower values of pancreatic volume, bicarbonate and enzymes secretion as compared to the Western reports are explained by the lower weight of Indians in comparison to Western people. Prostigmine an inexpensive and reliable alternative to pancreozmin is recommended for routine clinical studies of pancreatic enzymes.
