Abstract
The authors propose a new method for the evaluation of the respiratory function in silicotics. Their chief aim was to devise a procedure which would not require costly apparatuses, would be easily applicable and would give precise results. They use a common Benedict apparatus. The concentration of oxygen is expressed by a formula. The method is objective and does not depend on the subject's will to cooperate.
