The document describes four reagent solutions - HgCl2, CuSO4, AgNO3, and MgCl2 - being added in drops to two different protein extracts and a 2% egg albumin solution. For each combination, observations are made about any precipitate or layers formed, as well as color and clarity. Precipitates ranged from milky white to greenish to purplish powdery. Some solutions separated into distinct layers while others remained cloudy or clear.
