When normal adult mice received 5 large oral doses of staphyl-ococcus alpha-antitoxin, small but constant amounts were absorbed into the blood, showing that the intestine is very slightly permeable to this protein. The rate of absorption was employed as an index of intestinal permeability. Although the mouse is normally resistant to a single dose of concentrated Clostridium welchii type-D filtrate, the administration of 5 doses at hourly intervals so increased the permeability of the intestine that a lethal dose was absorbed. The greatest and most immediate increase in the permeability of the intestine was produced by the whole culture filtrate. The early increase in permeability appears to be due to epsilon toxin; the delayed increase in permeability is due to some other factor or factors in the filtrate.
