Titrate and adjust to required reaction, heating over free flame foi five minutes. 7. Filter through paper until clear 8. Sterilize. If medium can not be cleared by filtering through paper, clearing by white of egg may be resorted to and the medium filtered through cotton. Meat Infusion Broth.—1. Infuse 500 gms.' of lean meat, twelve to twenty-four hours, with 1,000 of distilled water in refrigerator. 2. Strain through wet cotton flan- nel or wet cheese-cloth and make up volume to 1,000 3. Add 5 gms. common salt and 10 gms. Witte's pepton. 4. Weigh with containing vessel. 5. Warm over flame or water bath, stirring until pepton is dissolved, not allowing temperature to rise above 50° C. 6. Determine Fig. 26.—Maassbn Filter, for SMALL Quantities of Fluid.
