The blood was collected by a method that has beenused by a number of other investigators. The animals were etherized,then, while the viscera were protected by warm towels, the vena cava and.

Then an oiled right angle glass cannula wasinserted into one renal vein so as to drain the vena cava, which wasfinally occluded by a hemostat anterior to the mouths of the lumbo-adrenal veins.
