- 1 March 1992
Distension of the descending colon elicits reflex coronary vasoconstriction. To study the efferent branch of this reflex, experiments were performed on 5 dogs anesthetized with pentobarbitone. A… Expand

The effect of gaboon viper (Bitis gabonica) venom on cardiac stroke work in the anaesthetized rabbit.
The effect of Bitis gabonica venom administered intravenously in the rabbit at the dose of 0.125 mg/kg (approximately 10% of LD50) has been studied. Venom caused marked changes in cardiovascular… Expand
