In 1928, at the Pasteur Institute of Burma, Rangoon, the writer made attempts at employing the complement fixation reaction for detecting evidence of immunity in immunised animals and in treated cases. The doses of the vaccine then used were small and the only animal used in the experiment was the rabbit. The reactions were poor, inconstant and on the whole unconvincing. With the increase in th...

The controversy really took off when the US Government refused the French scientists a patent for the blood test but awarded it to Gallo. The Pasteur Institute challenged the patent in court. The dispute ended in an out of court settlement with a decision to share the credit.
