ON COMPLEMENT-FIXATION IN MALIGNANT DISEASE

On Complement-fixation in Malignant Disease

Through the researches of Wassermann and his collaborators it has been established that syphilitic sera may contain substances which in the presence of other substances derived from syphilitic organs are capable of fixing complement, so that upon the subsequent addition of red corpuscles and homologous hemolytic amboceptor hemolysis is impeded. This phenomenon was originally interpreted as mean...

Studies on Complement Fixation

It is shown by complement fixation studies with protein antigens and specific immune rabbit sera that the rate of fixation of complement is determined by the concentration of antibodies in the immune sera, that the greater part of fixation of complement takes place during the 1st hour, and that fixation is practically completed at the end of 4 hours at ice box temperature. It is further shown t...
