The small amount of blood available was not sufficient for an exact chemical analysis. The few examinations reported in the literature were limited to the determination of the so-called "colloid lability." It is only since one of us¹ published a simple nephelometric method that it has become possible to study the protein fractions in 1 c.c. of blood, and to undertake examinations in a large number of cases. We examined more than one hundred healthy and sick infants. This test is based on the following principle. It has been known since Hofmeister's time that a half saturated ammonium sulphate solution precipitates all the globulins and fibrinogen; a 33 per cent. saturated solution precipitates the euglobulin and fibrinogen; and a 27 per cent, saturated solution will only . . .
