MATERIALS AND METHODSSeven healthy, female, mongrel dogs (lo-1 2 kg) were used. In three dogs, the electric potentials were detected by 15 unipolar and 5 bipolar platinum electrodes, and in four dogs, they were detected by 11 unipolar electrodes. The construction of the electrodes and the connector used to unite them to a recorder was patterned after those described by Allen, Poole, and Code (I). The unipolar electrodes consisted of one platinum wire which protruded 0.5 mm from the Teflon disk. The bipolar electrodes consisted of two platinum wires separated by 5 mm, the tip of each protruding 0.5 mm from the disk. With the use of surgical aseptic technique(no premeditations were used) while the dog was under pentobarbital anesthesia (30 mg/kg, intravenously), the electrodes were implanted at equal or very nearly equal distances, the first being placed on the duodenum and the last on the terminal ileum. The five bipolar electrodes, used in three dogs, were always the most distal and were oriented so that their detecting tips were at right angles to the long axis of the bowel. Ten days after the operation, recording sessions were begun, and these were continued periodically for 3-6 months. The dogs were conscious and healthy and were trained to lie quietly in a sling during periods of recording. The observation sessions lasted for a minimum of 3.5 hr, during which the electric potentials were registered on an 8-channel recorder(Brush Mark 200) with a rectilinear inkwriting system using a time constant of l sec. Unipolar potentials were obtained between the electrodes on the bowel and a platinum needle electrode placed subcutaneously in the right thigh. Bipolar potentials were obtained between the electrodes on the bowel separated by 5 mm. If the slow wave in the ileum originated in the transverse plane as in the duodenum(2) then, theoretically, bipolar recording should cant el the slow-wave signal. In practice however, slow w ‘aves were obtained, and the recordings were more stable and contained fewer movement artifacts than the unipolar recordings from the same region. An explanation might be that the recording tips of the bipolar electrodes were not perpendicular to the longitudinal muscle fibers, for when the electrodes were implanted, no particular precautions were taken to ensure that they were exactly perpendicular. Most experiments were done
