The determination of plasma volume by the Evans blue method

Croonian Lecture - The antidiuretic hormone and the factors which determine its release

“…0-9% NaCl) was taken from the ipselateral ear vein and from the malleolar vein. From the haematocrit values and the concentrations of Evans's blue (method of Crooke & Morris 1942) in the plasma-I am indebted to Dr Karvonen for these determinations-the common carotid blood flow was calculated.…”

Lung disease with chronic obstruction in opium smokers in Singapore: Clinical, electrocardiographic, radiological, functional, and pathological features

“…(b) Blood volume studies in patients suspected of having polycythaemia, using the Evans Blue method (Crooke and Morris, 1942). These patients had a dusky, plethoric appearance, a haemoglobin content of more than 15-9 g/100 ml, and a haematocrit greater than 55%.…”

Maintenance of metabolism during intensive patient care

“…Biochemical investigations employing non-radioactive dilution methods have been used to assess the body composition (Crooke & Morris, 1942;Cruickshank & Whitfield, 1945;Schwartz, Schachter & Freinkel, 1949;Courtice & Guntar, 1949;Edwards & White, 1960) but the results show variations according to the materials used. Thus although sucrose, inulin and thiosulphate may all be used to measure the extracellular fluid volume, the three results all vary to a significant extent because of differences in distribution (Ikkos, 1955).…”
