| stomach |
The collection point for food. Top part is a more neutral environment (around pH7) and contains some fermenting bacteria so a little digestion takes place here. The wall of the upper part is prone to ulceration from excess acid eg where horses are stressed or on high cereal diets. The lower part of the stomach has acid producing glands in the gut wall creating a more acidic (low pH) environment which helps to kill off harmful bacteria that enter along with the food.
