Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... or ward may be sprayed with this diluted solution, after which the room should be closed for several hours. A weaker solution, one-fourth of one per cent., is used for sterilizing the hands and for surgical purposes. For disinfecting with the gas a formaldehyde generator is furnished.
