Abstract
Dogs which had been bled 3.2% of their body wt. absorbed less distilled water from the small intestine than did the control animals. Isotonic chloride soln., however, was absorbed more quickly from the intestine in the dogs which had sustained a hemorrhage. Lastly, hemorrhage had no effect on the absorption of isotonic glucose soln. from the small intestine. Some of the possible mechanisms which might explain the results are discussed.
