    Liquor Acidi Chromici.—Chromic anhydride, 25 gm.; distilled water, q.s., 100 mils. Dissolve. Liquor Adrenalini Hydrochloricus.—Adrenalin, 1 gm. ; chloroform, 5 mils ; sodium chloride, 9 gm. ; diluted hydrochloric acid, 3 mils ; distilled water, recently boiled and cooled, q.s. to 1,000 mils. Dissolve chloroform and salt in 900 mils of the water, add the acid, dissolve the adrenalin in the mixture, and make up to the required volume. Preserve in amber glass bottles. Liquor Ammonias.—An aqueous solution con¬ taining 10 per cent, by weight of ammonia, NH3. Strong solution of ammonia 500 mils; distilled water, 1,000 mils. Mix. S.G. 0'959. Liquor Ammonite Fortis.—An aqueous solution containing 32-5 per cent, by weight of ammonia, NH,. It may be obtained by heating a mixture of ammonium chloride and slaked lime, and pass¬ ing the resulting ammonia into distilled water. S.G. 0-888. Liquor Ammonii Acetatis.—Acetic acid 162-5 mils ; is mixed with 500 mils of distilled water and neutralized with ammonium carbonate 50 gm., after which sufficient distilled water is added to produce 1,000 mils. S.G. 1-016. Liquor Ammonii Citratis.—Ammonium carbo¬ nate, 87-5 gm., or a sufficient quantity; citric acid, 125 gm. ; distilled water, sufficient to produce 1,000 mils. Dissolve the citric acid in five times its weight of water ; neutralize with ammonium carbonate ; add sufficient water to produce the required volume. S.G. 1-057. Liquor Arsenicalis (Fowler’s Solution).—Ar- senious anhydride, in powder, 10 gm. ; potassium carbonate, 10 gm. ; compound tincture of lavender, 30 mils ; distilled water, to produce 1,000 mils. Dissolve the arsenic and potass, carb. in half the water with heat, add the lavender and water to produce the required volume. Contains 1 gm. arsenious anhydride in 100 mils = 1 gr. in 110 minims. Liquor Arsenici Hydrochloricus.—Arsenious anhydride, in powder, 10 gm. ; hydrochloric acid, 12 mils; distilled water, q.s. to 1,000 mils. Same strength as liq. arsenicalis.
