Abstract
The antagonistic action of the vagal and sympathetic divisions in the regulation of gastric motor activity was illustrated using an isolated nerve-stomach preparation of the rat. The inhibiting action of parasympathicolytic drugs on the gastric motor response to vagal stimulation was studied, and it is suggested that the preparation may be utilized for qualitative and quantitative estimation of the properties of atropine-like and ganglionic blocking agents.
