Blood flow rates in the mucosa and muscularis sections of the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum of conscious goats have been measured by using radioactive microspheres. Blood flow rates to the rumen mucosa in ml/100 g tissue/min were 33.56 plus or minus 4.5, 11.64 plus or minus 3.2 and 7.18 plus or minus 1.6 under control conditions and during adrenaline and noradrenaline infusions, respectively. Flow rates to the various other sections under control conditions were also higher than during adrenaline and noradrenaline infusions.
