A method for the determination of blood sugar has been developed which is based upon the use of a more specific copper solution than has hitherto been available. Where the new procedure is employed for normal human blood the results are from fifteen to thirty percent lower than those obtained where the method of Folin and Wu is employed. Details of the procedure will be published in a short time.
