To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
^ The vessel containing the emulsion should be kept undisturbed, for if the water is shaken up with the oil the process is retarded. An elevated tem- perature, of about 100° F., seems for a while to pro- mote the change, but ultimately leaves the gut in an unsatisfactory state compared with that obtained at an ordinary temperature ; and conversely, some portions of gut which I have prepared in a room without a fire, in cold weather, at a temperature of about 46°, were in one week already in a t...rustworthy condition for surgical purposes. Hence the gut should be pre- pared in as cool a place as possible. The longer it is kept in emulsion the better the gut becomes. I once feared that in time it might grow too rigid for convenience, and possibly brittle also; but experi- ence shows that this is not the case. " When removed from the emulsion it soon dries in the air, but retains a considerable portion of its carbolic acid for several hours, so that no apprehen- sion need be entertained of loss of its antiseptic prop- erty from exposure during the performance of an op- eration.
