Dilatation of the intestine due to direct application of 1: 1000adrenalin to the superior mesenteric ganglion. Cat. Base of bellows 10 19 mm. (Reduced one-half.) ments gave negative results. We investigated seven animals in all,three dogs and four cats, taking records of the volume changes of aloop of intestine on application of a solution of adrenalin 1: 1000 to theganglia. The preparation of these in the dog was like that described
