[Analysis of solutions for parenteral use under field conditions]

Methods for determination of relative density, osmolarity, then refractometry, polarymetry and conductometry as simple methods suitable for work under field conditions have been applied for the quality control of the following solutions for infusion and injections: glucose, mannitol, sodium chloride, sodium hydrogencarbonate, magnesium sulphate and potassium chloride. The results obtained in the analysis of preparations have shown the advantage of refractometry.
