It is often of importance to be able to determine the presence of free mineral acid (HCl) in the gastric contents. Mere acidity to litmus may be due to lactic or fatty acids produced by fermentation of the contents. The following reactions may be used to test this point: a. Paper stained with congo-red turns blue in the presence of free inorganic or organic acids, but is not altered by acid salts. b. To some of the stomach-contents an equal quantity of Gunzberg's reagent (a solution of phloroglucin and vanillin in alcohol) is added and the mixture evaporated on a water-bath. A delicate rose tint shows the presence of hydi'ochloric Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Starling, Ernest Henry, 1866-1927.
