Abstract
The findingsof Barbour and his associates are confirmed[long dash]that the exposure of laboratory animals to atmospheric warmth is followed by dilution of the blood and exposure to atmospheric cold is followed by concentration of the blood. The same changes of similar magnitude occur after splenectomy, indicating that these changes of the water content of the blood in response to atmospheric temp. changes are not due primarily to addition or withdrawal of blood from the splenic reservoir.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
