Other workers determined the entire carbohydrate spectrum of human gastric juice in an attempt to evaluate the composition of gastric mucosubstances. Richmond et al. (R4) and Hoskins and Zamcheck (H50) studied a large number of individual gastric juices in our laboratory (G55) a large pool of normal gastric juices was studied for hexoses, hexosamine, fucose, sialic acid, uronic acid, and total carbohydrate content. Results obtained in normals and patients with various gastric diseases are summarized in Tables 8 and 9.
