Abstract
The maximal secretion pressure in both the submaxillary and parotid gland varies directly with the rate of flow. At high rates (1 ml/min) of flow the pressure in the submaxillary gland is significantly higher than that in the parotid. At these flow rates the secretion pressure in both glands is higher than the capillary blood pressure.Keywords
