The purpose of the following experiments was to determine the effect of different levels of excess vitamin A in the diet on the activity of the thyroid gland as indicated by determinations of oxygen consumption in relation to body weight. ## Methods Twenty-seven female rats of the Sprague-Dawley
During investigation$ on the acidity of bog waters, it was observed that the pH of such waters ranged from 3.83 t o 4.95 and that the dominant cause of the acid condition of the water was not due t o carbonic acid but to the colloidal material in the water1). The experiments reported below show that
