Forestomach motility in the chronically vagotomized sheep

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

1. The motility of the reticulo-rumen and omasum in conscious sheep was studied by electromyography from chronically implanted nichrome wire electrodes. The sheep were subjected to vagotomy and were maintained totally by intragastric infusion of liquid nutrients before and after vagotomy. Before vagotomy the motility of the forestomach was essentially similar to that seen in roughage-fed sheep.
