The model demonstrated that only the putrescible solid waste was totally converted to methane.
2
By means of a membrane, he separated a sterilised putrescible liquid from a putrefying one.
3
It is also precipitated by tannin, which combines with it to form an insoluble non-putrescible compound.
4
Fed with such air, in the great majority of cases the putrescible liquids remained perfectly sweet after boiling.
5
We have now to devise a means of testing the action of such spontaneously purified air upon putrescible infusions.
6
Where there is overcrowding, the collections of putrescible filth are multiplied, and with them probably the productive foci of infective particles.
7
All putrescible matter liable to breed a pestilence is carried far from shore and sunk under fathoms of the never-stagnant sea.
8
It is highly probable, judging from the results of experiments, that every collection of putrescible matter is potentially a productive focus of microbes.
9
The importance of "Dutch cleanliness" in our houses, and the abolition of all collections of putrescible matter in and around our houses, is abundantly evident.
