Iodin Disinfection in Operative Cases. Drs. D. W. and E. S. Bullock believe that the iodin technic is the best in use to-day. It is most certain and convenient to the operator, and least offensive to the patient. Solutions of ten per cent. and higher may be used without harmful effects, but the solution is equally effective when weakened to two per cent. In instances followed by dermatitis, recovery is prompt without treatment. The simplicity of the procedure arouses doubt, but its use will inspire confidence.—Va. Med. Semi-Mo.
