Abstract
A LOWERING of brain potassium has been demonstrated in insulin-induced hypoglycaemic encephalopathy in cats1. As ovine pregnancy toxaemia has been tentatively identified as hypoglycaemic encephalopathy2, determinations were made of the potassium content of slices, approximately 2 mm. thick, taken from the surface of the cerebral cortex of sheep dead, or in extremis, from either pregnancy toxaemia or prolonged insulin hypoglycaemia. Similar samples wore taken from normal sheep.
