PHYSIOLOGICAL ACTIONS OF DRUGS ON THE SECRETION OF BILE. 175. Fig. 30.—Secretion of bile before and after iridin. 2cc. bile anl injected into the duodenum at h. 5 grains iridin in thesame fluid injected at i. Necropsy.—Stomach normal. There was increased vascularity of themucous membrane of nearly the whole length of the small intestine. Theredness was not very marked, but it was greater than in the previous experi-ment. There was decided purgation, the small intestine containing 87 cc. offluid with abundant mucousflocculi. Results of Experiments withIridin.—1. Five grains of iridinwhen mixed with a little bileand water and placed in theduodenum very powerfullystimulated the liver. It is notso powerful as large doses(four grains) of podophyllin,but it is more powerful thaneuonymin, as is shown by theamount of bile secreted perkilogramme of clog; the hourlycoefficients of secretion forthe two euonymin experimentsbeing 0*4789 cc. and 04678 cc,whereas in the iridin experi-ments they are 0537 cc. and0*638 cc. respectively.
