Abstract
The presence of serum albumin in the gastric lumen can be readily diagnosed by paper electrophoresis of the gastric juice. While small amounts of albumin are present in the gastric juice under normal conditions, a massive leakage of serum albumin into the stomach occurs often in gastric cancer, Menetrier's disease, and in some cases of gastric atrophy. Paper electrophoresis of the gastric juice has definite clinical significance for the detection of these conditions.
