THE REACTION AND ACIDITY OF URINE. The reaction of normal urine to litmus paper. Effect of concentration, copious drinking, meats, etc. "Acid fermentation;" changes in reaction on standing. Alkaline decomposition; reaction of stale urine. Conversion of urea into ammonium carbonate, etc. Urine alkaline from fixed alkali and from volatile. Amphoteric reaction. Physiological variations in the reaction; effect of age, drinks, diet, exercise, ingestion of drugs, etc. Pathological variations; effects of diseases, as diabetes, fever, gout, stomach diseases, etc., etc. Clinical notes on hyperacidity; effect on urethritis, cause of albu- minuria, sign of lithiasis, diagnostic point in pulmonary tuberculosis. Clinical test for reaction, use of litmus paper. How to preserve litmus paper. Collection of urine for determination of acidity. Cause of the apparent acidity of urine. Difficulties in determining the acidity of urine. Clinical method for determining acidity. Benedict's "acid units." Relation of acidity to arteriosclerosis. Preparation of decinormal sodium hydroxide solution. Decinormal sodium hydroxide U. S. P. Polin's method for determining the total acidity, including diacid phosphates and free organic acids. Acidity expressed in terms of oxalic acid and of hydrochloric acid. The chemical balance and set of weights. Determination of acidity by estimation of sodium dihydrophos- phate. The Reaction of Urine.?Normally the urine is slightly acid in reaction, turning blue litmus paper red. The degree of acidity depends largely upon the concentration, urine of high specific gravity?as on rising in the morning?being more acid than after drinking copiously. In some cases, however, the urine grows less...
