A part of the body is discharged from the urine in its original form, and it is generally discharged within 10 hours. It can selectively fight glycine, relieve the post-synaptic inhibition process of the central nervous system, and eliminate the inhibition between neurons.

4. Take the gastric juice residue and add 1 drop of concentrated sulfuric acid. After dissolving, put 1 small potassium dichromate crystal, which immediately appears blue or purple blue, and quickly turns orange-red, which confirms the diagnosis.

5. Take 1ml of gastric lavage fluid and inject into the lymphatic sac of the strong frog. If the frog's hind legs are strong and straight after several minutes to half an hour, the diagnosis can be confirmed.
