STUDIES IN ISOAGGLUTINATION : I. TRANSFUSION AND THE QUESTION OF INTRAVASCULAR AGGLUTINATION.

This was particularly true of the first five mixtures in the series; in the other mixtures the absorption of agglutinin by the excess of agglutinable cells present also played a part; and in the last two, they apparently prevented agglutination, as in the experiments referred to in table II. This, of course, is extremely significant for transfusion; a few large clumps might cause serious or fatal embolism.
