The secretory function of the small intestine was studied in 25 dogs with isolated intestinal loop by Tiery's method. Intestinal juice was obtained by mechanical stimulation. The quantity of the juice recovered within 6 hours was measured. The activity of enterokinase, acid phosphatase, peptidase, and lipase was investigated. All dogs were irradiated by x rays in the dose of 400 r. The periods of increased fermentative activity of intestinal juice were observed, as well as the rise of the quantity of the juice. These periods were alternated with periods of normalization and depression. Excretion of intestinal ferments in the feces of dogs corresponded to the changes of activity of the ferments in the juice. Milk-egg and liver diets did not normalize the secretory processes of the small intestines in dogs. (tr-auth)
