Typical features
The metal Rhodium is found in association with Platinum. The preparation of it used by Hering was thus obtained: A small quantity of Rhodium sponge, hydrate of potassa and nitre were exposed to the action of the blowpipe until oxidised. After having the oxide well washed and boiled in nitric acid for a few minutes and exposed to a gentle heat for an hour, the nitrate was obtained from the oxide: a fluid of a golden colour, and of the consistency of syrup. Dilutions of this were made, and the 4th was proved for Hering by Doctor Pehrson, the 2nd and 3rd by Doctor Negendank. The bowels were affected in both, constipation with piles being relieved in one, and constipation with itching of the anus being caused in the other. Some Peculiar Symptoms were: Headache on being waked up in the night. Headache alternating with faintness. Faintness by passage of stool. Heat preceding chill and alternating with it. Sensation as if teeth blunt; as if sand between them. Scraping or harsh noise = disagreeable sensation in teeth. Hearing more acute; illusion that he hears whispering.
