Abstract
This communication describes an electrolytically driven infusion pump with a capacity of 100 ml to be used for intravenous infusion. The pump delivers infusate in an even, controlled manner at rates up to 20 ml/h. It is inexpensive to construct and has proved its durability in two years of use in the laboratory.
