FELL & CO. ELECTROTYPERS AND PRINTERS 1220-24- SANSOM STREET PHILADELPHIA PREFACE TO THE FOURTH EDITION. Since the publication of the last edition of this little work I have been able to find an unexpectedly large number of eponymic clinical terms not previously in- cluded, and in order to insert them, the table itself has been rewritten and greatly increased in size. The Dose ! Table has also been enlarged by the inclusion of the names and doses of drugs recently introduced. Added Tables of Poisons and of Eponymic Tests bring the total number of words and terms defined above 30,000. The occasion has been utilized to correct a number of ' inaccuracies in the body of the book. . The publisher informs me that the total circulation of y dictionaries has now passed the one hundred thousand ^ iark, — a popularity most encouraging to an author. GEORGE M. GOULD. Philadelphia, February, 1900. FROM THE PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. Medical students and physicians often have need of a small, elementary word-book that may be slipped into the pocket for hurried reference, and to serve as a pass- ing reminder of the essential meanings of the more commonly used terms. Such books are too frequently made for the benefit of the publisher rather than for that of the consultant, and therefore err in a condensa- tion so great as to result in vagueness and inaccuracy, and err especially in the definition of too few words — and those of decidedly antique flavor. The little volume herewith offered seeks to avoid these faults, and par- ticularly that last mentioned, by containing about double the number of words included in the ordinary pocket lexicons, and by being made up of the words of the living medical literature of the day. The addition of the useful tables of muscles, nerves, arteries, the various m.. roorganisms, comparison of thermometric scales, and, above all, of a dose-table compiled directly from the latest and best works on materia medica, must also prove useful.

Dumontpallier's Test for Bile Pigments. See Smith's Test. EHRLICH'S Reaction. The treatment of the urine with diazo- benzosulphuric acid produces a deep-red color that is due to a com- bination of the reagent with an aromatic amido-compound found in the urine in typhoid fever and pneumonia ; frequently also in pleurisy, measles, tuberculosis, erysipelas, and peritonitis. To produce this reaction, equal parts of the reagent and urine are mixed and about one-eighth of their total volume of ammonia i added. The reagent consists of two solutions: (1) Sulphanilio acid, 1 gram ; hydrochloric acid, 10 c.c. ; distilled water, 200 c.c. (2) Nitrate of sodium, 0.5 gram; distilled water, 100 c.c.

This makes a ruby-red solution ; if a few drops of it are placed in a porcelain dish, and 1 or 2 drops of the liquid to be tested are allowed to come in contact with it, a faint violet cloud is ob- served in the presence of HC1. On mixing, the color becomes brown. FEHLING'S Test for Glucose. Two solutions are required to be kept in two distinct parts in well-stoppered bottles. A.

Dissolve 173 grams of Rochelle salts in 100 c.c. of a solution of caustic soda having a specific gravity of 1.34, and dilute with water to 500 c.c. Mix equal volumes of A and B for use; the result is a dark-blue fluid known as Fehling's solution. The solution should always be fresh, as tartaric acid has a tendency to become converted into racemic acid, which reduces cupric salts like sugar Its absence should always be ascertained by boiling the Fehling's solution, which should remain unaltered by this process. On addi- tion of a solution of glucose and then boiling a red precipitate of the cuprous oxid or hydrate occurs. Fermentation Test for Glucose. Half fill a test-tube with solu- tion of dextrose, and add a little dried German yeast. Invert the tube over mercury and allow it to stand in a warm place for 24 hours.

A control experiment should be made with yeast and water in another test- Hube, as a small yield of carbonic acid is often obtained from im- purities in the yeast. See also Roberts. ieux's Test for Antipyrin. Add 2.5 grams of sodii metaphos- phoric acid and 12 drops of sulphuric acid to the suspected fluid, filter, and to the clear filtrate add a few drops of sodium nitrate.

On the addition of a strong solution of iodin and iodid of potassium to human spermatic fluid brown crystals in the shape of needles or plates are formed. This is not wholly f reliable as a test for human spermatic fluid, since the crystals can also be found in the spermatic fluid of animals. ^ormaldehyd. Phenylhydrazin has been proposed by Vitali as a test for formaldehyd. A mixture of the two gives rise to a milky discoloration; eventually a yellowish deposit is precipitated upon the sides of the test-tube. In concentrated solutions the turbidity appears immediately. In solutions of a strength of 1 : 100 the re- action occurs after a few seconds ; in those of 1 : 1000, in 1 minute ; in those of 1 : 10,000, in 5 minutes ; in those of 1 : 100,000, in 2 to 3 u hours.
