Scope and ContentThese appear to have been demonstrations rather than experiments conducted by students themselves. My notes are extensive and formal
8.10.45 Effect of changed intestinal pressure on the activity of the mammalian gut – diagrams – contractions shown as traces? smoked drums. A ‘critique’ follows
15.10.45Action of acetylcholine, atropine and other compounds on movements of the isolated gut
22.10.45 Action of acetylcholine, adrenaline and oxytocin on the isolated rat and rabbit uterus.
29.10.45 Action of cocaine, homatropine, physostigmine, pilocarpine, ephedrine on the internal muscles of the eye.
5.11.45 Effects of atropine given simultaneously “Solutions A and B (acetylcholine, muscarine) were administered to CPH (61 Kg) (? Colin Hay) and to DLG (75 Kg). There was little effect and it was concluded that the amounts given were too small. Larger amounts cause pupil dilatation and acceleration of the pulse.
12.11.45 Study VI
Effects of exercise, adrenaline, and amyl nitrate on of blood pressure – JHS (Jocelyn Sandison) and KMC (Katherine Carmichael) joined DLG and CPH
19.11.45 Study VII
Absorption, distribution and excretion of drugs – KI, sulphanilamide made up in different strengths studies with test papers and colorimetry.
26.11.45 Study VIII
Rabbits were used. CNS depressants – general anaesthetics, basal anaesthetics, motor depressants, hypnotics, analgesics. Wide individual variation in response to barbiturates
Local anaesthetics‐ procaine, ?naplocaine, cocaine, tested on the rabbit cornea and intradermally. Carefully tabulated results. Cocaine easily penetrated mucous membranes.
