Topic:Equine Science
Equine Science encompasses the study of horses and their management, health, and performance. This field integrates various scientific disciplines such as biology, genetics, nutrition, physiology, and veterinary medicine to understand and improve the well-being and capabilities of horses. Areas of focus include equine anatomy, reproduction, behavior, and disease prevention. Research in equine science aims to enhance horse care, optimize training and performance, and address health challenges. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore the diverse aspects of equine science, providing insights into the latest advancements and methodologies in the field.
A kininogen-kinin like reaction revealed by the marginal distance of the equine lung.
Summary
Wetting an area 40 × 40 cm. with water at around 16 °C produces a marked increase in the marginal distance of the horse lung (distance between limits of pulmonary sound and sound of thoracic wall) which persists for an average of 4 1/2 hours. The treated area, but no other area, of skin remains totally refractory for more than 7 hours and partially refractory for more than 28 but less than 46 hours. Phenylbutazone (7 mg./kg. i. v.) prevents the effect. A kininogen-kinin effect is considered the likely explanation. Camphor produced similar changes to those caused by cold water.
