Abstract:This work investigated the frog gastric mucosa response to hydrogen peroxide and ethanol induced injury. Acid and mucus secretion were estimated "in vitro" in control animals with intragastric absolute ethanol (1ml/30min. or 2ml/60min.) and hydrogen peroxide. The gastric mucosa morphological conditions were assessed "in vivo", concerning lesion area, pH and mucus. Ethanol (1ml/30min.) was observed to cause hyperemia, cell damage, rupture, edema, erosions, necrosis in gastric mucosa and significant increase in … Show more
