Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1 Experiment 3. Rabbit 775, highly immunized against horse serum, yielded a serum which passively sensitized a guinea pig of 300 grams in amounts of cc. The precipitin tests showed that cc. In 1 cc. Of salt solution gave a distinct precipitate with of horse serum; with larger amounts of horse serum the precipitate was voluminous. One cubic centimeter of Serum 775, added to nine parts of per cent salt solution, was heated for one-half hour at Precipitin tests with 3 cc. Of this heated mixture failed to give any reaction with either of of horse serum, though the tubes were observed several days. That the mere dilution could not be held responsible for this result is abundantly proven by Experiment 6 of this paper. On the day following inactivation, five guinea pigs were given subcutaneous inoculations of the heated mixture, three receiving 1 cc. Each, and the remaining two, each 2 cc. The former group had an amount corresponding to one sensitizing dose, while the latter received two. Two days later all the ani mals were given intravenous injection of cc. Of horse serum. The first group showed symptoms of varying intensity, but none either had convulsions, or died. The two pigs in the second group, however, immediately died.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1918, Vol. 22 In a previous communication,1 we presented the results of some experimental observations bearing on the relationship between the glo bulin content of an animal's serum and the grade of immunity devel oped in it by immunization with various bacteria. These observations brought out several interesting points concerning the relation of the serum globulins to the antibodies, and especially emphasized the lack Of parallelism between the globulin content of the blood and the con centration of antibodies. During the past year, we have directed our efforts to a consideration of this problem in its bearing on antitoxic immunity. This subject possesses more than academic interest because of the constant association of the antisubstance with the serum glo bulin, and because of the practical application that has been made of this knowledge in the preparation and concentration of antitoxic serums.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1918, Vol. 23: Published by the John McCormick Institute for Infectious Diseases Within the past few years the literature dealing with organisms of the diphtheria group have received many new contributions. It seems that most human and animal diseases of hitherto unknown etiology have been ascribed to some sort of diphtheroid organism. Whether or not these results will be confirmed has little bearing on the problem which confronts the systematic bacteriologist who finds himself hard put to it in attempting to classify the great number of organisms which for no reason other than a slight resemblance to the diphtheria bacteria have been thrown haphazardly into a group of unknowns - the diphtheroids.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8 There is considerable evidence that natural resistance, and whatever grade of active acquired immunity may exist against streptococcus infections, is due to a mechanism that differs from that which is operative in many other bacterial infections. It seems likely that ignorance of what constitutes this difference accounts to a large extent for the failure to obtain any strikingly successful results in the prevention or cure of any of the mani fold forms of streptococcic disease.

This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5 In the year 1901 Neisser and Wechsberg described a peculiar function of immune sera, which they called "Complementablenkung," and which later has been named the "Phenomenon of Neisser and Wechsberg." The phenomenon consisted in the observation that, whereas small or medium doses of bactericidal sera exhibited the bactericidal function with the homologous strain, the larger doses were without effect. Thus an inactivated immune serum against Vibrio Metschnikoff with added complement, showed bactericidal action in doses of 0.05 to 0.0025 cc., but in larger doses it had no such effect. Likewise, Neisser and Wechsberg showed that the dose of complement-bearing serum, which was sufficient to activate a certain dose of an inactivated serum, was not capable of doing so when larger doses of immune serum were added. The explanation of this paradoxical serum function was sought, by the authors, in the great richness of the immune serum in bactericidal amboceptors. These antibodies, which, in the immune serum, must be present in far greater quantities than the complement in the activating serum, were supposed to unite with the complement and form thereby a lysin that dissolves the bacillus after becoming attached to it; but on account of the predominance in the number of the amboceptors, there being insufficient complement to satisfy all of the amboceptors, some of the latter were assumed to remain as unaltered amboceptors, free of complement, and thus devoid of bactericidal function.
