MICRO GASOMETRIC ESTIMATION OF THE BLOOD GASES

Improvements in the Gasometric Estimation of Carbon Monoxide in Blood

A simple and accurate gasometric method for measuring the CO content of blood is useful for blood volume determinations, for the estimation of CO poisoning, and for checking the more speedy optical methods which, from time to time, have been devised for these and other purposes. In an attempt to remedy certain disadvantages in previous methods, Roughton (1) recently worked out a technique in wh...

A Comparison of the Urea Nitrogen Content of Cutaneous and Venous Blood by Micro Gasometric Analysis.

Svensgaard (1) using the micro urea method of Rehberg (2) compared the urea concentrations in blood from the arm vein with that of cutaneous blood from the lobe of the ear. In 29 of 32 analyses of the blood of normal fasting subjects she found the urea of the capillary blood higher thamn that of the venous blood. The average difference was 10 per cent of the venous urea content, but individual ...

A GASOMETRIC METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF pH IN BLOOD

Gasometric Determination of Fermentable Sugar in Blood and Urine

Procedures for fermentative determination, in blood and urine, of glucose, or of sugars resembling it in their fermentability by yeast, have been refined by different investigators during the past few years. The chief source of error, undue prolongation of the time of fermentation to one or more days, was removed by Hiller, Linder, and Van Slyke (1925), who utilized conditions under which gluco...
