Abstract
THE preparation used in this investigation has been either the spinal cord of the decerebrated or anæsthetized cat or the isolated oxygenated spinal cord of the frog, and it has been activated by electrical stimulation of a dorsal root (the 7th lumbar or 1st sacral in the cat, the 9th or 10th in the frog).
