The effect of age and strain on the amount of neurosecretion.
The work carried on 4 groups of guinea pigs, each group consisting of five animals showed, that the age and strain may influence the amount of neurosecretion, with the older (except 6 month old animals which passed maturing stage) secreting more than that of younger. And the amount of neurosecretion in animals of the black strain is somehow lower than the ones of the grey.
