Abstract
A double glucagon test was performed in 100 patients and seventeen control subjects. Two intravenous doses of glucagon (1 mg) were administered at a 1-hr interval. Glucose was determined before the first injection and 20, 25 and 30 min after both doses, and the increases after each successive dose were added up.Keywords
