Finally, as a matter of precaution, it would be desirable that all persons should be revaccinated on smallpox existing in the house where they were residing — -a precaution, however, that will cease to be necessary...
Сторінка 242 - Ammonia, too, is capable of undergoing such a multitude of transformations, when in contact with other bodies, that in this respect it is not inferior to water, which possesses the same property in an eminent degree. It possesses properties which we do not find in any other compound of nitrogen ; when pure, it is extremely soluble in water ; it forms soluble compounds with all the acids ; and when in contact with certain other substances, it completely resigns its character as an alkali, and is capable...

Сторінка 449 - Furthermore, a yellow tint in the cells was no proof of the presence of bile ; it showed merely the presence of pigment, and yellow pigment is found in the fat of some animals, quite independent of biliary secretion. Chemistry must be resorted to, to solve the question of the presence of bile in the hepatic cells. The author had made alcoholic extracts of the livers of different animals, and having evaporated to dryness, the residue, when dissolved in water, failed to show, by Pettenkoffer's test,...
Сторінка 442 - ... closed. In this experiment the Eustachian tubes were opened during each act of deglutition ; during the first act, while they were open, air was forced into the cavity of the tympanum by the contraction of the muscles of the fauces and pharynx, and the guttural orifices of the tubes remained closed until the second act of swallowing, which opened the tubes, and allowed the air to escape. That the act of deglutition opens the Eustachian tubes was inferred also from the custom usually adopted of...
Сторінка 442 - Eustachian tube in man are the tensor and levator palati, and it is by their action, during the process of deglutition, that the tubes are ordinarily opened. That the act of swallowing is the means whereby the Eustachian tubes are opened, is shown by some experiments, of which the following may be cited : — If the mouth and nose be closed during the act of swallowing the saliva, a sensation of fulness or distension arises from the air, which is slightly compressed in the fauces, passing into and...
Сторінка 441 - ... continuous with that in the cavity of the fauces. An examination of the guttural orifice of the tube in man and other animals has led the author to conclude, that, except during muscular action, this orifice is always closed, and that the tympanum forms a cavity distinct and isolated from the outer air. The muscles which open the Eustachian tube in man are the tensor and levator palati, and it is by their action during the process of deglutition that the tubes are ordinarily opened. That the...
Сторінка 246 - ... number of very remarkable properties. By its means the chief constituents of the blood are kept in their fluid state ; the extreme facility with which the blood moves through the minutest vessels, is due to the small degree of. permeability of the walls of these vessels for the alkaline fluid. The free alkali acts as a resistance to many causes, which, in the absence of the alkali, would coagulate the albumen. The more alkali the blood contains, the higher is the temperature at which its albumen...
