Effect of morphine on the clearance of endogenous creatinine and blood clinical chemicals in the rat.

The effect of morphine on urine and blood serum concentration of Na+, K+, Cl- and other chemicals was determined using Sprague Dawley rats, previously hydrated with 50 ml/kg of 0.5% NaCl to provoke an increased diuresis. Morphine caused about a 90% decrease in the urine concentration of Na+, K+ and Cl-.

Isolation and partial characterization of a kallikrein from mouse submaxillary glands.

A simple procedure to obtain relatively large amounts of purified kallikrein from male mouse submaxillary gland is described. Some chemical and biological properties of this kallikrein have been investigated. The enzyme has a m.
