In a normal middle-aged population the basal serum gastrin concentration and gastric pH were determined. Persons with achlorhydria were excluded. In 550 nonachlorhydric persons the relation between basal gastric pH and serum gastrin was studied. Persons with a basal gastric pH higher than 6 had significantly higher basal serum gastrin concentrations.
