Total protein contents in the perilymphy of Scala vestibuli and Scala tympani as well as in the cerobrospinal fluid (CSF) of guinea-pigs were determined, by which specimens were taken under the following various conditions: With or without subarachnoidal puncture before perilymph collection, by varying the amount of perilymph taken from Scala tympani, by fractionating collection and under post mortem condition. The results suggest that under physiological conditions the CSF also flows through the cochleae aqueduct and the protein concentration in the Scala tympani decreases especially in the basal winding. Because the protein content in CSF is inaverage four times lower than in fluids of the inner ear it is of preference to consider the question of connection between the CSF and the fluids of the inner ear. In the specimens taken the blood contamination was estimated on the basisof erythrocytes in the connection capillaries under microscope. The protein content in the perilymph of Scala vestibuli was found significantly higher in relation to perilymph of Scala tympani.
测定了豚鼠前庭阶和鼓阶外淋巴以及脑脊液（CSF）中的总蛋白含量，样本采集条件如下：在采集外淋巴之前是否进行蛛网膜下腔穿刺、改变从鼓阶采集的外淋巴量、分阶段采集以及在死后条件下采集。结果表明，在生理条件下，脑脊液也流经蜗水管，鼓阶中的蛋白质浓度降低，尤其是在基底回。由于脑脊液中的蛋白质含量平均比内耳液中的低四倍，因此最好考虑脑脊液与内耳液之间的连通问题。在所采集的样本中，通过显微镜观察连接毛细血管中的红细胞来估计血液污染情况。发现前庭阶外淋巴中的蛋白质含量相对于鼓阶外淋巴显著更高。
