Next follow Dr. Cowgill\u2019s office and research laboratory (Room 120) which has the usual chemical equipment, a kymographic apparatus for studying gastric mobility, a chaino-matic balance, hood, etc.\nAt the end of the corridor is the general laboratory (Room 119) for graduate students who have already spent some time in the study of elementary physiological chemistry. During the first semester the students work upon biochemical preparations, and in the second semester they may begin their research here. This room (50 ft. by 25 ft.) will accommodate twenty students. In addition to the usual equipment it contains an alberene hood with twelve steam baths and a small power centrifuge. The animal metabolism room (25 ft. by 25 ft.) contains ten or fifteen dog cages, several rabbit cages, and an alberene sink (2 ft. by 3 ft. by 6 ft.) planned for giving baths to the larger animals. The operating room (13 ft. by 25 ft.) is equipped with an alberene sink, instrument cases, two large mammalian operating tables, and an insufflation apparatus for anesthesia. The operating table is lighted from above by a specially designed cluster of lights.\nRoom 114 and Room 111 are research labora-\ntories, each accommodating several workers. They are 25 feet by 25 feet, with a desk 10 feet by 4 feet by 5 feet, laboratory tables around the walls, and four alberene sinks with two water faucets, one for use with condensers and one for general use. Room 113 (25 ft. by 10 ft.) is equipped for analytical work, particularly nitrogen estimations. The fumes from the acid digestions are carried away by a hood with forced draft through 6-inch lead pipes to the outside flues. The hood will accommodate twenty-six 700 cc. Kjeldahl flasks at one time, and there are also twenty-six stills, with tubes of block tin for distillations. Titrations are carried out at the end of the room where a large window affords ample light. The \u201cphysical chemistry\u201d room (31 ft. by 25 ft.) contains, in addition to the usual equipment, a large refrigerator of four compartments, and a complete hydrogen ion apparatus, consisting of the standard Clark electrode assembly with motor-driven shaker, rheostats, a type K potentiometer, an Epply standard cell, a 2-volt 10-ampere storage cell, an enclosed lamp and scale galvanometer, an extra lamp for galvanometer, and a unit for operating the lamp.\nAll research and student laboratories in this Department are equipped with the most essential aids, such as hot and cold water, gas, electric cur-","page":212},{"file":"p0213.txt","language":"en","ocr_en":"DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY\n213\nrent, steam and water baths, centrifuges, air pressure, suction, hoods, electric ovens, and analytical balances.\nBasement\nAll polariscopic and spectroscopic work or other procedures with optical apparatus are carried on in the dark room (16 ft. by 10 ft.), along one side of which is a cabinet containing spectroscopes, polariscopes, colorimeters, nephelometers, refractometers, and their accessories. Room 28 is arranged for the distillation of inflammables and the manipulation of ill-smelling products. It is fitted with a hood with alberene base, reagent shelves, and an alberene table around the three sides of the room. Every precaution is taken here to avert fires. Next to this is a research room (Room 27) which, in addition to the usual equipment, is provided with a chainomatic balance, electric autoclave, and alberene dialyzing sink (2 ft. by 3 ft. by 8 ft.). Mr. W. E. Anderson, Fellow of the Institute of American Meat Packers, is now at work in this room on \u201cThe Influence of Diet upon the Quality of Fat produced in the Animal Body.\u201d An instructor\u2019s research laboratory (Room 25, 18 ft. by 25 ft.), similar to those already described, is followed by the \u201cfood preparation\u201d room (Room 23, 18 ft.\nby 25 ft.) which has a large Grinnell dryer capable of holding twelve trays 2 feet by 2 feet, an extra large power centrifuge, a large meat grinder, a smaller grinder for chemicals and salt mixtures, etc., a Buchner hydraulic press, and large bins for storage.\nThe main stockroom of the Department is divided into two parts, one (Room 21) for glassware, which is fitted with extra large metal shelves, designed to hold large quantities of chemical glassware, and one for chemicals. The latter is situated just beneath the first floor landing, and is connected with the basement by a stairway. At the end of the basement corridor is the nutrition room (Room 20, 36 ft. by 35 ft.) for small animals, primarily rats and mice. It is provided with seven alberene compartments, each having three shelves capable of holding about sixty small cages; an alberene shelf three feet above the cement floor, which extends around the entire room; and two alberene sinks. Cleanliness, possibility of disinfection, and regulation of the temperature, which throughout the fall, winter, and spring months runs between 76 and 80 degrees Centigrade, are the chief requirements of the rat room. Every effort is made to kill flies, insects, etc., that might find their way in. Adjoining is a smaller room (Room 19, 12 ft.\nFig. 5.\u2014Professor\u2019s Office","page":213},{"file":"p0214.txt","language":"en","ocr_en":"214\nYALE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE\nFig. 6.\u2014One-Unit Laboratory for Members of the Staff\nFig. 7.\u2014Two-Unit Laboratory for Members of the Staff.

It contains about 250 to 300 cylindrical metal rat cages, about forty guinea-pig cages, and cages for pigeons. There is a long table (3 ft. by 12 ft.) in the center of the room, a sink, a steam sterilizer (2 ft. by 3 ft. by 8 ft.), and a large metal cabinet for the storage of food and water cups, trays, etc. As a rule all rat and mouse cages are cleaned twice a week and sterilized with live steam in a steam box for thirty minutes once a week.\nThe large laboratory for elementary physiolog-\nis furnished by seven large windows, and for dark days there are fourteen large electric lights suspended from the top of the room, thus affording sufficient light regardless of the weather. In one end of the laboratory there are two large shelves where the qualitative stock solutions for use of the class are kept. To the left of these is a small centrifuge and shelves for solid chemicals.\nAdjoining the large laboratory is the room (Room 9, 20 ft. by 25 ft.) used by the laboratory assistant for the preparation of solutions and materials, etc., for the class, and for his own investi-\nFig. 8.\u2014One-Unit Office for a Member of the Staff, Communicating Directly with His\nTwo-Unit Laboratory\nical chemistry (Room 14) measures 90 feet by 22 feet, and will accommodate about 100 students. There are nine central laboratory tables, each containing an alberene sink (2 ft. by % ft. by 6 ft.) in the center, designed to accommodate eight students. A laboratory table running around the wall of the entire room\u2014with the exception of the hood space\u2014has desks and space for about thirty students. All students\u2019 desks are furnished with new equipment. There are besides numerous small wall shelves for the side shelf reagents, a faucet in the center of the room for distilled water, and a four-section hood, each section having six water baths. Abundant light\ng\u00e2tions. In case of necessity it could accommodate ten or twelve more students as it contains one large laboratory table similar to those in Room 14, and shelves along the wall where the solutions are kept. There is also desk space along the outer wall for five or six students. It is the intention of the Department, however, to use this room exclusively as a preparation and research room for the laboratory assistants. It has a large four-compartment refrigerator directly under the one in Room 109, a filter press, and small centrifuge. As the large majority of students taking the elementary course are medical students, and as their time is very limited, effort has been made","page":215},{"file":"p0216.txt","language":"en","ocr_en":"216\nYALE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF MEDICINE\nto unite the large laboratory at one end with the supply room, and at the other with the chemical and glassware stockrooms.\nThe main stockroom of the building consists of four different rooms, two of which are small and open into the corridor, one being used for the stock delivery and the other for books. The stockroom proper is a large room, 45 feet by 45 feet, in the center of which there are five metal compartments, each containing ninety shelves (3 ft. by 2 ft.). There are also similar compartments around the walls. In the rear, there is a room 45 feet by 8 feet which is used as a receiving room, where all goods for the building are received, and checked by the stockman.\nThe main animal house for use of all departments is a large room, 60 feet by 45 feet, divided into eleven compartments each consisting of twelve animal cages, 4 feet by 5 feet by 8 feet. Thirty of these cages, or two and one half compartments, are assigned to the Department of Physiological Chemistry. These cages serve both for research and detention purposes for the animals of the different departments, and are intended primarily for dogs. In addition there are two compartments for rabbits and guinea-pigs and the Department of Medicine has twenty\ncages, 4 feet by 3 feet by 4 feet, for monkeys. The sides and rear of each compartment are of cement, with attachments for cold water and live steam, and the fronts of galvanized iron. The room is situated just behind the main stockroom and entrance to it is by means of a tunnel under this stockroom leading from the sub-basement to the power house in the rear. The animal house has steam heat, electricity, and numerous windows on each side and skylights above which afford ample light and ventilation. The location of the animal house is designed to prevent the noises therefrom from reaching the lecture halls, libraries, etc.\nINSTRUCTION AND RESEARCH\nThe instruction in physiological chemistry is independent of the other departments. All students who enter any of the courses here are expected to have had a preliminary training in analytical and organic chemistry and elementary biology or general physiology. It should be noted that physiology in its broadest aspects is divided at Yale into two categories: physical physiology, taught in the laboratory of physical physiology, and chemical physiology, which is identified essentially with physiological chemis-\nFig. 9.\u2014Metabolism Laboratory for Larger Laboratory Animals.

The subject thus has a somewhat broader content at Yale than the so-called biochemistry that is taught elsewhere as an adjunct to the Department of Chemistry.\nFor lectures given by the staff, the conveniently located main auditorium of the building, which will seat over 200 people, is available. Occasionally the seminar room is used for conferences of smaller groups of students. For example, Professor Mendel in this room holds the weekly physiological seminar throughout the year. The participants are required to prepare reports on papers appearing in English, German, and French physiological literature, and these are discussed in connection with the recent advances in physiology and physiological chemistry.\nDescriptions of the courses offered in this Department follow:\nPhysiology 100a. Physiological chemistry\nA laboratory course and lectures dealing with the more important constituents of animals and plants; chemistry of the epithelial, connective, contractile, and nervous tissues; chemical processes of salivary,\ngastric, pancreatic, and intestinal digestion and other chemical aspects of secretion, excretion, and metabolism. Knowledge of inorganic and organic chemistry, and of elementary biology or physiology is essential. This course is required of all students in the School of Medicine and the combined medical courses in the undergraduate schools. Twelve hours, first term.\nPhysiology 105. Advanced physiological chemistry\nStudents who have sufficient knowledge of analytical and organic chemistry and elementary physiology and general biology may pursue the study of physiological chemistry throughout the entire year. Those who have only a limited time and desire to study special topics are received, provided they are qualified by previous work to study advantageously. The advanced course covers in a more comprehensive manner the general plan outlined in Physiology 100a. Twelve hours throughout the year.\nPhysiology 106. Special methods of investigation in physiological chemistry\nIndividual and group instruction for those who have had preliminary training in the field of physiological chemistry and intend to prepare for a career in research.
