Unlike arsenic, corrosive sublimate insolution is precipitated as an insoluble compound by many organicprinciples, such as albumen, fibrin, casein, mucous membrane, also bygluten, tannic acid, and other vegetable substances. Thus, then, wemust not expect to find it in all cases in a state of solution in the PROCESS FOR SEPARATING THE POISON. 373 stomach. After removing the mineral sediment, we may separate anyof these insoluble compounds, reserving them for further analysis. As a trial-test for the presence of mercury in solution in the organicliquid, we may employ copper gauze or foil. A small portion of liquidacidulated with one-fourth
