Investigations of the dynamics of the nerve stimulated nasal salt gland of the Larus argentatu (Herring Gull) have shown that intraglandular duct anastomoses permit the gland to secret through one duct if the other is occluded. The force to extrude the secretion by maxima stimulation and uncatheterized ducts is lower than 40 mm H2O. The pressure force when botl ducts were occluded was measured to 430 mm H2O maximally.
