The appearance rates of antipyrine and urea into cerebrospinal fluid from blood were studied in the rabbits which were in the state of hypotension and of high permeability in the capillary beds following injection of histamine. The alteration in the distribution of electrolytes among various compartments of the brain and the permeability characteristics in the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier were also observed. Adult male rabbits, weighing around 2 kg, were used. Twenty four rabbits were divided into 3 groups. Besides the control group, histamine treated rabbits were categorized into 2 groups. $H_1$ consisted of the rabbits showing moderate responses to histamine and ranging from 62 to 80 mmHg in their mean anterial blood pressure. The animals which belong to $H_2-group$ showed severe responses to histamine and the mean anterial blood pressures dropped to 30-50 mmHg. Animals were anesthetized with nembutal, 30mg/kg i.v. The mean arterial blood pressure was read by means of the mercury manometer connected to the femoral artery. The animals, treated with histamine, were kept in hypotensive state at least for 40 minutes before the administration of the test-substances. The test-substances, 300 mg of urea and 200 mg of antipyrine, were dissolved in 3 ml of distilled water and were injected into the ear vein of the rabbit. After 10 minutes elapsed arterial blood sample was taken from the femoral artery and cerebrospinal fluid from the cisterna magna. Brain tissues were also analysed with respect to electrolytes in order to observe the disturbances in the electrolytes balance as well as in the function of the central nervous system. The results obtained were as follow: 1. The ratio of antipyrine concentration in cerebrospinal fluid to that of arterial blood plasma, that was the distribution ratio, was close to unity, revealing a well established equilibrium between the compartments of blood and cerebrospinal fluid in 10 minutes. In other words, there was no diffusion barrier with regard to antipyrine. The ratios over unity which were frequently seen in the histamine treated animals were attributable to the early penetration of the substance into the cerebrospinal fluid. 2. The appearance rates of urea into the cerebrospinal fluid in the histamine treated rabbits were higher in comparison with those of in the control animals. The increasing tendency in the rates was particularly remarkable in the $H_2-group$, showing the enhanced penetration of urea across the boondary. 3. In the htisamine treated $H_2-group$ the concentration of potassium in the blood plasma and cerebrospinal fluid well exceeded the control values and showed 8.5 and 9.0 mEq/l in average, respectively. Simultaneous drops in the brain tissue water were noticed, suggesting the leakage of intracellular potassium. 4. There was a coincidence in the rising pattern of potassium in the blood plasma and in the cerebrospinal fluid of $H_2-group$ and at least partial removal of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier with respect to potassium was suggested in these animals. 5. The concentration of sodium in the blood plasma or in the cerebrospinal fluid showed no significant changes following histamine injection. However, sodium in the brain tissue revealed slight elevation in the histamine treated groups. 6. The ratios of the concentrations of potassium to those of sodium, [K]/[Na] in the brain tissues, were 1.92 in the control 1.82 in the $H_1$ and 1.52 in the $H_2-group$, respectively. The marked drop in the $H_2-group$ might represent neural dysfunction in the extremely hypotensive rabbits.

제천습곡대의 제천화강암에 대하여 Rb-Sr, K-Ar 그러고 휫션트랙 등 세 가지 방법으로 다음과 같은 열역사를 규명하였다. 3개의 전암시료와 7개의 광물시료의 Rb과 Sr의 동위원소를 측정하여 얻은 등시선연령은 202.7$\pm$1.9Ma이고, Sr 초생치는 0.7140였다. 12개의 광물시료를 K-Ar 및 휫션트랙법으로 연령측정한 결과 각각의 연령보존온도에 거의 상응하는 광물연령을 얻었다. 연령측정자료로 이 암석의 성인과 암체의 열역사를 해석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 제천화강암은 쥬라기초(약 203 Ma)에 지각물질이 부분용융을 받아서 만들어진 'S-형'의 마그마가, 또는 맨틀기원의 'I-型'마그마와 지각물질의 심한 혼화작용에 의해 만들어진 마그마가 지각 심부 (mesozone 또는 katazone; 약 7~9km)에 관입하였으며, 관입체와 주변암석괴의 온도차 때문에 30$0^{\circ}C$까지는 매우 빨리 냉각되었다. 쥬라기말까지는 주위 암석들과 열적인 평형을 유지하므로써 냉각이 거의 중지되었다가, 백악기초부터 말까지 (140~70 Ma)는 화성활동을 수반한 심한 지구조운동과 활발한 풍화작용 때문에 평균 약 40~60 m/Ma의 상승률과 약 1.4$^{\circ}C$/Ma의 냉각률로 3~7 km 상승하였다. 백악기말부터 삼기초(70~50 Ma)까지는 펀균 약 100~120m/Ma의 상승률과 5$^{\circ}C$/Ma의 냉각률을, 그리고 삼기초 (50 Ma)부터 현재까지는 평균 약 50~60m/Ma의 상승률과 2$^{\circ}C$/Ma의 냉각률을 가지고 각각 상승 및 냉각된 것으로 해석된다.
