Transcriber's Notes:

The following corrections which did not concern obvious printer's errors have been made to the text.

-In the Table of Content, the formatting of the entry for "Dialysis"
was changed in order to indicate that this part is a section of the
chapter "Methods of Destruction of the Organic Substances"

-"treated with "_mélaïnocome_"" was: "treated with "melaniocome""

-The sentence "M. Salleron offers for sale a small apparatus
(Fig. 20)" wrongly referred to Fig. 16.

-"If the crystals originate from fresh blood, they appear as
represented in Fig. 21; crystals from old blood are represented in
Fig. 22." wrongly referred to Fig. 17 and 18; the same was the case
in "The fluid is examined from time to time under the microscope:
when it is sufficiently concentrated, crystals, presenting the
appearance represented in Figs. 21 or 22, will be observed."

-"an oxidizing body" was: "an oxydizing body"

-"condenser" was: "condensor"

-"areometer (alcoholmeter)" was: "areometer (alcoolmeter)"
