N.B., Norma! butyl alcohol 1 per cent, paralyzed after three closes 1 cc. each
in 30 cc. Locke. No response to epinephrin after that. lB., Isobutyl alcohol
1 per cent, contraction inhibited after 4 cc. but still revived by epinephrin.
with their molecular weight, and, on the other hand, that the
normal propyl, butyl and arnyl alcohols are more toxic than
the isopropyl, isobutyl and isoamyl alcohols, as revealed by
studies of the killing dose for cats, by experiments on isolated
