| Title | Unpublished manuscript, 'On the formation of uric acid in the animal economy and its relation to hippuric acid' by Alfred Baring Garrod |
| Date | 15 February 1883 |
| Description | Garrod communicates the results of a series of experiments and observations on uric and hippuric acid. He determines the solubility of uric acid and of some of its more important salts at the temperature of the healthy human body and arranges this information in a tabular form. He ascertains the action of urates of ammonium and sodium upon chlorides and phosphates of the same bases, when mixed with each other in different proportions. For corrections, see AP/63/1.
Includes three plates of anatomical figures and specimens under the microscope.
