A method facilitating the demonstration of synergism in the tissue-responses to mixed peptide stimuli.
A methodology for the pharmacodynamical assay of mixtures of 2 spasmogenic peptides is described, illustrated and discussed, with reference to a method intended for the chemists (P. Job, 1927). This allows a quick appreciation of the existence of synergism, of its own order of magnitude and of that of the doses for which it is significant. Also given is a fast way of curve-fitting the dose response to individual peptides, according to Clark's approximation.
