We have developed an animal model to study the effect of stimulating auricular points on the function of hepato-biliary system. The preliminary result shows that 14 of 18 rabbits acquired a marked increase (P less than 0.05) in the amount of heptic bile secretion 3 min and 7 min after point No. 3 stimulated with 58V.
