Abstract
Summary
No significant difference was found in the amount of bile salts excreted by 6 bile fistula rats when exposed for 4-hour periods to decreased oxygen tension (63 mm and 53 mm Hg) as compared to control periods. There was a statistically significant increase in the volume output of urine as a result of exposure to simulated altitude. No correlation existed between the amount of bile salts and the volume of urine excreted.
