Abstract

Blood Flow through the Salamander Brain. One thousand five hundred feet of 16 mm. film were used to measure the rate of flow of blood through the olfactory lobe of the brain of Amblystoma. This was done through the compound microscope. Both normal and experimental approaches were carried out. Such drugs as histamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine etc., were used in the experiment. The study demands the measuring of the movement of red blood cells as seen in projections from one frame to another frame. Project Number 92.
