The following work was originally undertaken in December 1951, with the hope of studying the ACTH-like activity of human blood in different physiological and pathological conditions. The acid acetone extraction of blood and the adrenal ascorbic acid depletion in hypophysectomized rats (Sayers' test) were selected as the most suitable means of approach at this time, without realizing the difficulties attendant upon the setting up of this test in the absence of extra technical assistance.
