Abstract
1. The responses to hepatic nerve stimulation were studied in cats and dogs anaesthetized with sodium pentobarbitone. In three series of experiments, hepatic arterial flow was recorded by an electromagnetic flowmeter, intrahepatic distributions of arterial and portal flows were studied by radioactive microspheres, and hepatic volume responses were measured by a plethysmographic method.
