    Abstract:
    Infusion of fructose solution (25 g in 100 ml) in sugar rations of 0.5 g or 1.0 g per kilogram of body weight usually induced in calf temporary drop of glucose in the blood plasma. This was attributable to rise in insulin secretion and glucose conversion or insufficiently fast effectiveness of insulin antagonists (adrenaline, glucagon, glucocorticosteroids). Such glucose drop could not be prevented by administration of 50 mg of prednisolone four hours before fructose infusion and 25 IU of ACTH five hours before infusion. Glucose as well as free fatty acids in the blood plasma went up in response to injection of 2.5 microgram/kg body weight during hypoglycaemia. The action of adrenaline was found to depend on the insulin dose given before in cases of insulin-induced hypoglycaemia. Doses of 0.5 g fructose per kilogram of body weight were administered in nine experimental infusions. Average half-life recorded from the blood plasma was 21.3 +/- 3.4 minutes.
