Experiments are described in which sections from the small intestine of rats, fed on triolein 23/4 hours previously, were examined with Sudan black and the acid haematein test, with and without Sudan red coloration.

The histochemical appearances in the epithelial cells of the mucous membrane are described. Lipoid can be observed not only within the epithelial cells and their free border but also as particles between the cells.
