A radiological study of the digestive tract of the foal. 1. The disposition and surface relations of the alimentary tract of the foal have been studied radiographically.
2. The rate of progress of a barium meal through the digestive tract was determined. The barium traversed the stomach and ileum of the weaned foal faster than that of the suckling foal, but was longer retained in the cæcum and ventral colon of the weaned foal.
Factors influencing the motility of the perfused horse intestine. No abstract available1. The magnitude of the rhythmic contractions of the perfused ileum varied with the supply of oxygen.
2. Isotonic sodium chloride solution was as good as Tyrode's solution for suspension of the red cells in the perfusion fluid.
3. Variation of the potassium and calcium content of the perfusion fluid had little effect on motility. Sodium ions had a specific function in maintaining motility.
4. The chloride ions in the perfusion fluid were replaced by bromide, phosphate and sulphate ions without affecting motility. Iodide ions were toxic.
5. The ileum perfused wi...
Haemoglobin concentration, haematocrit value, and sedimentation rate of horse blood. 1. Volume p.c. of r.b.c., hæmoglobin concentration, relative viscosity of the plasma and blood, and the sedimentation rate of the r.b.c. have been estimated on 7 healthy horses.
2. Increase in the volume p.c. of r.b.c. was found in the excited or working horse. The concentration of r.b.c. in blood from the jugular vein in horses at rest is rather low in comparison with other animals.
3. Increase in the Hb. g. p.c./r.b.c. V. p.c. ratio was found in cases with the higher volume p.c. of r.b.c. with a significant correlation coefficient.
4. Apparent relative viscosity of horse blood at h...
