<p>An artificial cerebro-spinal fluid (I) contains 0.3-0.9 g/litre of a hexose and mineral salts in sufficient quantity to lower the freezing point, or cryoscopic DELTA t, by 0.5 to 0.7 degrees C. The hexose is pref. glucose and/or levulose and the mineral salts are alkali or alkaline earth cations with chloride, sulphate, bicarbonate or phosphate anions. The total wt. of mineral salts is 6-12 g/l. (I) is used (i) to prevent dessication of nervous tissue during surgery, (ii) as a vehicle for medicaments, which act on the cortex or marrow, (iii) for injection into the spinal cord when measuring intracranial pressure, (iv) for dialysis of human cerebro-spinal fluid during auto-immune diseases, (v) to inject cranial radiographic contrast media, and (vi) as a solvent for injectable proteins.</p> |
