. The examination of the urine of the horse and man . According to Frommer, even the minutestamount of acetone will give this reaction and no otherconstituent of the urine will give this color—not evendiaceticacid. The reafction is explained as follows: Onemolecule of salicylic aldehyde combines with one moleculeof acetone to form oxybenzol-acetone. This, in the pres-ence of strong alkalies, forms dioxy-dibenzol-acetone. Thealkaline salts of this compound are intensely red. Urobilin is commonly regarded as the most importantcoloring matter in the urine. There is some evidence that itrepresents

Urobilin is commonly regarded as the most importantcoloring matter in the urine. There is some evidence that itrepresents a reduced form of bilirubin, on^ of the pigments ofthe bile.* Urobilin is more readily obtaimed from highly coloredurines, (ffevers, etc.). Test. The ordinary test wath an alcoholic solutionof zinc may be simplified in the following manner: 10 urine are acidified with 2 drops of HCl and shaken with * A small amount of an alcoholic extract of the feces added to theurine will usuaiiy give favorable tests for urobilin. s„JXSi \>^^ >^. \NhJ\
