Notes on the technique of hydrogen peroxide administration through the rectal tract, in the fight of domestic dog's hemintosis

Abstract

After rectal introduction of hydrogen peroxide in treating canine helmintosis, it can be shown that the fluid went ano-oralwards, through the entire digestive tract, by adding starch to the H202 solution and performing the iodine reaction on the vomited material. The vomit can therefore, be taken as a sign that the antihelmintic has, as desired, gone through the whole length of the digestive tract.
