SIMULTANEOUS STUDY OF THE CONSTITUENTS OF THE SWEAT, URINE AND BLOOD, ALSO GASTRIC ACIDITY AND OTHER MANIFESTATIONS RESULTING FROM SWEATING

Abstract
[long dash]In 90 observations uric acid was constantly excreted in the sweat in small amounts. The uric acid content of both blood and urine rose after sweating. Rise of body temperature rather than blood concentration is the preferred explanation of this. Lactic acid was constantly excreted in the sweat in appreciable quantities.
