Abstract

Animals which died from lethal dose of Racuming, showed wide spread external, internal and interstitial haemorrhages, which were extensive in the lungs. Secondary to the servere haemorr hages, the majority of organs suffered from the effect of ischaemia. The severity of pulmonary haemorrhages points out to a selective susceptibility of pulmonary blood vessels to the injurious effect of excess Racuming. This finding may be supplemented by the occur rence of pulmonary haemorrhages in case of the sublethal dose of Racuming, although haemorrhage at other sites of the same animals was relatively scanty.
