100 COMPARISONS OF RESPIRATORY EXCHANGE. 



TABLE 12. Respiratory exchange in comparison experiments with .the bedcaJ^mter and the 

 Benedict respiration apparatus (tension-equalizer unit) . (Without food.) Continued. 



A critical examination of the table shows that in many of the ex- 

 periments the respiratory quotient is noticeably higher with the bed 

 calorimeter, irrespective of the order in which the experiments were
