Abstract
Summary
Tested by the Schultz-Dale Technic, chicken antibody failed to sensitize the chicken or the guinea pig intestine. Rabbit antibody sensitized guinea pig intestine but failed to sensitize chicken intestine. The minimum doses of histamine and acetylcholine required for contraction of the chicken intestine were considerably larger than those required for guinea pig intestine.
We wish to thank Dr. W. E. Vannier for critical review of the manuscript and Mr. H. Crilly and Mr. B. Clark for technical assistance.
