Hydrogen peroxide in oxygenated Ringer's solution increases the steady E.N.F. of frog skin from a just detectable amount at 1.5 x 10-6M peroxide to a maximum at,8 X lo-\* 31 (Marsh and Carlson, '41). Higher concentrations reversibly depress the steady potential difference below the control level. T

It has been well established that temperature directly influences the oxygen consumption of poikilotherms and that their activity varies directly with fluctuations in environmental temperatures. The adjustment of metabolic rates to the prevailing temperature is evidenced in several ways by different
Since the pioneer work of du Bois Reymond ( '57), the origin of the potential across the isolated frog skin, a i d the anatomical location of the active site, or sites, has bccn a subject of considera1)le debate arnong physiologists. The predominant, hut by no means unanimous, opinion has bccn that
The work of Lund ( '28), Marsh ( 'as), Williams and Sheard ( '32), Boell and Taylor ( '33 a, b), and Francis ( '34) has demonstrated a relationship between the electromotive force and the respiratory activity in normal polarized cells and tissues. Lund ('28 a ) has postulated and verified by experim
## THREE FIGURES Recent studies (Adolph, '25, '34; Luck6 and McCutcheon, '32) on the passage of materials across living membranes have made it important to know with some accuracy the quantitative values for the transfer of water across frog skin. Since the fundamental work of Durig ( 'Ol), it ha
