ResumoA double antibody HGH radioimmunoassay procedure is reported. Results in basal conditions and following Glucagon and L-Dopa provocative tests in normal subjects and in some pathological conditions are reported and discussed. The method described proved to be a fast procedure, practical, and suitable for routine work. Values obtained are accurate and well reproducible. The provocative tests used are irmocuous and seem to be a fine means of investigation on HGH release and its dynamics. (auth)
