Abstract
The reactions of glucose-oxidase test paper (Clinistix® and Tes-Tape®) were studied in the nasal secretion of 100 nurses. Clinistix® gave positive reaction in 75 % and Tes-Tape® in 45 % in cases with normal nasal secretion. The tests are of limited value in the diagnosis of cerebrospinal rhinorrhoe.Keywords
