THE PRECIPITIN TEST FOR BLOOD [PDF]

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1918
The study of immunity as manifested by the reactions of the animal body to microbes, toxins and protein materials in general has given us many tests of great value. The phenomena of agglutination, of complement fixation, of altered reactivity, of opsonification and of serum precipitation have all been put to practical use in tests, some of which are ...
