[Effect of chicken bile on heart and blood pressure in animals]

In this paper, the effect of chicken bile on heart and blood pressure in animals was studied. The result shows that chicken bile(50 mg/kg, i.v.) can significantly reduce the normal blood pressure and hypertension induced by ephedrine in white rats. Chicken bile(1000 ppm) markedly inhibits myocardial contractive force, frequency and cardiac output of the isolated frog heart. But no influence was observed on the ECG in rabbits after administration of the bile (50 mg/kg, i.v.).
