“…It has been shown by Schumann (1940), Verzar & Montigel (1941, 1943a, 1943b and by Kutscher & Wust (1941) that, after adrenalectomy, phosphorylation of glycogen by muscle and liver (Doetsch, 1945) is decreased. Since some authors were not able to confirm this observation (Riesser, 1943-5;Smits, 1943-5;Helve, 1940) the experiments were repeated in this laboratory by Staehelin & Voegtli (unpublished) and the earlier results were fully confirmed.…”
