[Comparative study of the effects of 2 types of protein-energy malnutrition followed by a balanced realimentation on trypsin and chymotrypsin activity of the pancreas and the pancreatic juice of the rat].

The intake of 2 p. 100 casein or 5 p. 100 gluten diet as only protein source caused overall protein synthesis and immediately stopped the rat growth. Trypsin activity was less affected than chymotrypsin activity in pancreas. Refeeding on 20 p. 100 or 15 p. 100 casein diet caused a considerable increase of trypsin and chymotrypsin activities during the first week.
