Abstract
Infusions of whole blood were given to animals acutely starved and chronically undernourished
to 73 to 79 per cent of initial body weight. Equivalent amounts of blood were given
to normally fed controls whose transfusion weights corresponded to the transfusion
weights of the animals in the experimental groups. No differences were demonstrated
between the groups with respect to cell and volume changes subsequent to infusion.
