Simon. Physiological Chemistry, Lea Bros. a. 1901. CHAPTER V. THE NASAL SECRETION. In the nasal secretion, which normally is small in amount, trans-parent, colorless, odorless, tenacious, and of a slightly saline taste,pavement-epithelial cells in large numbers, ciliated epithelial cells, aswell as some leucocytes and an enormous number of micro-organisms,are found (Fig. Qti). Its reaction is alkaline. Fig. Epithelial cells and mucous corpuscles found in the nasal secretion. In acute coryza the amount is diminished at first, but soon a verycopious secretion occurs, which contains numerous epithelial cellsand micro-organisms. When complicated with an ulcerative condi-tion pus is observed in considerable amount. Occasionally, as in cases of traumatism, cerebral tumors, etc.,cerebrospinal fluid is discharged through the nose, and may berecognized by the fact that it is free from albumin and contains asubstance which reduces Fehlings solution. Of pathogenic organisms, the tubercle bacillus and the bacillus ofglanders may occur in ulcerative diseases of the nose, their presenceindicating the existence of the corresponding affection. In ozsena alarge diplococcus has been described by Lowenberg, which is said tobe characteristic of the disease. Oidinm albicans has been observedin rare cases. The Meningococcus intracellularis of Weichselbaum,which is now quite generally regarded as the cause of
