THE STUDIES on the concentration of chloride, urea, glucose, uric acid and ammonia nitrogen in palmar sweat¹ were made on pure sweat collected from the openings of sweat ducts on the palmar surface of the finger.^1a The analytic methods were such that the volumes of sweat collected were adequate for chemical study when the sweat was issuing from the ducts in either a profuse or an intermittent manner (fig. 1 of the article on urea by one of us [W. C. L., Jr.] and Osterberg^1c): the so-called profuse and intermittent physiologic types of sweating.

In our study on creatinine, it was observed that the volume of sweat which could be collected in the half-hour period of observation in most instances was not sufficient to allow accurate analysis of this constituent even when using the capillary tube colorimetric method of Bordley, Hendrix and Richards² adapted to the . . .
