1. The metabolism of even-numbered saturated ( @entity1543 to @entity3106 ) and unsaturated ( @entity3952 and @entity7461 ) @entity1718 by diaphragms of isolated rumen epithelium has been investigated. 2. When @entity1718 are presented to the papillae surface, @entity6178 bodies are released from the opposite (muscle) side of the tissue. 3. When the concentration of @entity6212 or @entity19658 is increased to a critical value, which varies inversely with the chain length of the @entity844 , the respiration of the tissue is inhibited and @entity6178 body synthesis is diminished. Under these conditions unmetabolized @entity844 crosses the tissue down a concentration gradient. 4. The inhibitions by @entity6212 and @entity19658 are more marked when the @entity844 is presented to both surfaces of the rumen epithelium. 5. During the oxidation of @entity6212 and @entity19658 at non-inhibitory concentrations, small quantities of shorter chain @entity1718 , including @entity598 , are produced.
