TIME COURSE OF PAROTID SECRETION IN MAN

L. H. SCHNEYER 1, WILLIAM J. DU BOSE 1, L. K. LEVIN 1, and HARRY E. OHME III 1

Rate of secretion by one parotid gland of each of 11 subjects has been observed at frequent intervals during a 4- to 10-minute period of saliva collection. Two methods of recording cumulative secretary flow were employed. Three general patterns of flow rate change were observed: (1) flow rate may remain relatively constant during the total collection period; (2) flow rate may show rapid periodic fluctuation; or (3) rate of secretion may display slow periodic fluctuation. The data, although limited, suggest that the time pattern of secretary flow is characteristic for the individual subject.
