[Letter from B. M. Hendrix to Chauncey D. Leake, December 8, 1944]

Letter from B. M. Hendrix to Chauncey D. Leake discussing his opinions on "the problem of the utilization of invert sugar for intravenous injection". His concerns include whether such solutions will cause a fever; whether they can be stored for long periods of time without discoloration; the possibility of neutralizing the acidic elements of such solutions; ways to maintain a satisfactory salt content of such solutions; and the issues with removing acid and water after hydrolysis via vacuum. He also points out that they will need a supply of pyrogen-free distilled water and that "a rather large number of experiments on animals will need to be done" in order to complete the work, along with other logistics and avenues of study that will need to be explored.
