Abstract
1. The mechanical activity of different parts of the omasum was recorded by means of small balloons and/or strain-gauges in conscious sheep. These events were related to the electrical activity of the omasal body, the omasal groove and the leaves and to the changes in diameter of the reticulo-omasal orifice. Humoral, behavioural and nervous influences were examined.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
