dc.description.abstract1. 1. A cannulation method was devised that allows continuous safe gastric sampling and recording of intragastric pressure in Caiman crocodilus.2. 2. In C. crocodilus, fed 5 per cent of the body weight, complete gastric emptying takes an average of 99 (+/-10) hr at 30[deg]C, to an average of 315 (+/-16) hr at 15[deg]C.3. 3. Two types of gastric contractions were recorded in C. crocodilus, by means of intragastric pressure measurements, at 20, 25 and 30[deg]C.4. 4. The two types of contractions were recorded regardless of the feeding state of the animals.5. 5. Their frequency and amplitude increase with temperature or upon feeding.en_US
