Practical physiological chemistry

ABSTRACT IN spite of the fact that a fifth edition of this valuable book was reviewed in NATURE of August 28, 1919, another edition has rapidly become necessary. The volume has been revised

and enlarged, and several new methods have been introduced, of which the most important is a modification of McLean's method for the determination of blood sugar. Other additions

include Van Slyke's method for the estimation of blood chlorides, and the soya bean method for the estimation of the urea in blood. Six editions of the book have now appeared in sixteen

years; this should be a sufficient guarantee of the worth of the contents. Practical Physiological Chemistry. S. W. Cole By. With an introduction by Prof. F. G. Hopkins. Sixth edition. Pp.
