METHODSGenerul. The experiments were done on mongrel dogs weighing 9-l 3 kg, anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital, 30 mg/kg. Both kidneys were exposed by a retroperitoneal approach and long ligatures were placed around the renal vessels for subsequent occlusion. Popliteal lymphatics on both sides of the lateral saphenous veins in the two hindlegs were cannulated distal to the popliteal lymph node with PE-50 tubing. The cannulated lymphatics(usually two) from each leg drained into small tared glass tubes containing Na oxalate as anticoagulant. Lymph flow was calculated as weight difference/collection time. Arterial blood samples were taken from the carotid artery. To promote lymph flow, the paws were moved passively by a rotary device at approximately 100 cycles/min. In eight experiments, venous pressure in one leg was raised 3045 mm Hg by inflating a cuff around the thigh. Venous pressure was monitored with a mercury manometer attached to a cannula in a branch of the lateral saphenous vein In five experiments one paw was heated by wrapping it in insulated electric heating tape. The skin temperature was maintained at 45 & 0.5 C by a thermistor relay. To prevent overshoot, the current through the heating tape was reduced to such a level that the on phase of the cycle was greater than 50%. The temperature was chosen to induce vasodilatation and promote lymph flow but to avoid serious injury to the tissues (10, 1 l), Intravenous infusions of test molecules were programed to maintain a constant arterial concentration of the tracers. Data for the program were obtained in preliminary experiments in which single intravenous injections of each tracer were given to dogs with occluded renal vessels, and adjustments were made on the basis of subsequent infusion experiments. When lymph flow became steady, usually 1 hr after cannulation, blank samples of lymph and blood were taken and the renal ligatures were tied. At time zero priming in-
