Extract

1. A comparison is made of Δ for the blood of sheep with Δ for the contents of the stomach compartments. It is suggested that the approximate identity of the two sets of values is best explained by the view that absorption takes place from the compartments.

2. A variation of 0·570–0·630 is recorded for Δ for the blood of sheep.
