Abstract

Summary:  The chemical examination of corchro-spinal fluid using Albustix and Dextrostix is described. The protein and glucose valucs obtained in cases of meningitis compare savourably with those obtained using routine laboratory techniques. It is therefore recommended that where facilities are 110t available for routine laboratory estimation of protcin and glucose in suspected cases of ningitis, Albustix and Dextrostix may be used.
