The Influence Upon Metabolism of Non-Oxidizable Material in the Intestinal Tract

Abstract: The APS Journal Legacy Content is the corpus of 100 years of historical scientific research from the American Physiological Society research journals. This package goes back to the first issue of each of the APS journals including the American Journal of Physiology, first published in 1898. The full text scanned images of the printed pages are easily searchable. Downloads quickly in PDF format.

“…The higher heat production of the others probably resulted from the increased physical activity by the hens in their attempts to get more food, (iii) Better correlation was noted between the energy cost of eating and the number of pecks as well as the time spent eating than with the amount of food consumed (P = 0-0019, 0001 and 0-006 respectively). These findings are in accord with those from man (Benedict & Emmes, 1912), dogs (Benedict & Pratt, 1913) and sheep (Young, 1966).…”

“…These observations led to the proposal that the postprandial increase in oxygen consumption was due to increased ' intestinal work '. Early workers (Rubner, 1902;Benedict & Emmes, 1912) were unable to detect any increase in metabolic rate following the ingestion of inert meals and, although more modem techniques have revealed that an increase in metabolic rate does take place during periods of increased intestinal action, it may be too small to quantify experimentally. In the case of ruminants and other herbivorous animals which consume large quantities of food, the increase in metabolic rate due to intestinal activity may be large (Webster, 1972;Webster et al, 1976) but in other species the energy cost of passing digesta along the alimentary tract may amount to only 2-3% of the increase in metabolic rate following feeding (Farrell, 1976;Coulson & Hernandez, 1979).…”

“…Bidder and Schmidt (1877) attributed this rise to the 'work of digestion'. This concept of increased intestinal work was challenged by Benidict and Emmes (1912), who showed that V02 rose equally in response to either intravenous or oral amino-acids. A succinct summary of the various theories of the cause of this rise was written by Kleiber (1961).…”
