Dogs were anaesthetized by anal application of avertin, which was followed by the lumbar route preparation for collecting the suprarenal vein blood.
About one hour later insulin was intravenously applied; an abundant output of epinephrine resulted, that is in an almost similar degree as in dogs without narcosis.
The blood flow through the gland did not undergo any visible increase in the avertin dogs, contrary to the non-anaesthetized, while the concentration of epinephrine of the suprarenal vein blood increased much in the former.
The blood sugar content decreased more profoundly on insulin in the avertin-dogs than in the non-anaesthetized.
Roughly speaking the avertin-narcosis does not materially interfere with the accelerating action of insulin upon the epinephrine secretion from the suprarenal capsule in dogs.
