title: The production of standard atmospheres of volatile anaesthetic agents by a diffusion dilution cell.
abstract: The diffusion of a vapour into a gas provides a useful method for the preparation of standard atmospheres of the vapour. The construction and use of the apparatus for preparing these standards are described and the relevance of the method to research in anaesthetic practice is discussed.
