Analyses of the blood of normal new born infants, made by J. P. Sedgewick and M. R. Zieg ler,1 show that the values for creatin plus creatinin and non-protein nitrogen are high during the first few days of life corresponding with the high values for uric acid during that period. The creatinin and sugar values are essentially the same as the adult normal values, and the urea nitrogen is near the maximum normal value for adults.
