The results obtained in the study of the total base of the plasma are given in table 1. The relatively slight variation in the concentration of total base of the plasma in different types of nephritis and under varying conditions is apparent. Marked abnormality is noted in only two serums. Others, however, are at the lower limits of normal and are lower than those found by Blackfan and Hamilton² in nine children who were nearly normal, namely, from 156 to 161 cc. tenth-normal base per hundred cubic centimeters of blood.
