TY - JOUR T1 - PReparation of dextrose for intraperitoneal injection AU - SHOHL AT, BEAL FF Y1 - 1929/11/01 N1 - 10.1001/archpedi.1929.01930110042006 JO - American Journal of Diseases of Children SP - 943 EP - 943 VL - 38 IS - 5 N2 - The advantages of dextrose given intraperitoneally as recently demonstrated by Grulee and Sanford1 have been amply confirmed in this department. Because of its importance in therapy, it seemed desirable to devise a simpler method for the preparation of the dextrose. We have used no special apparatus and hence it should be available for the use of every physician.TECHNIC  Five grams of chemically pure, finely ground dextrose is weighed and placed in a test tube approximately 4 by ¾ inches (100 mm. by 15 mm.) and the test tube is loosely stoppered with a cotton plug. This is inverted and placed in a wide-mouthed bottle containing from 25 to 50 Gm. of granular anhydrous calcium chloride. The bottle is fitted with a cork and autoclaved at 15 pounds (6.8 Kg.) for twenty minutes. This preparation will keep for at least several months.For use, we make the solution with SN - 0096-8994 M3 - doi: 10.1001/archpedi.1929.01930110042006 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archpedi.1929.01930110042006 ER -
