Abstract

The difficulty in taking sweat during heavy physical exercise has drawn the authors into testing a technique of sampling generally used in paediatrics. The fact that the results, which have been dealt with statistically, should coincide with the physiological facts already published allows us to consider a use of the technique in order to investigate the physiological mechanisms in action during sweating under different metabolic conditions.
