Abstract
DURING the continuation of work aimed at explaining the development and possible significance of the Thomsen phenomenon1 in vivo (so-called poly-agglutinability), it proved practicable to produce hæmolytic anæmia in guinea pigs by T-transformation of their erythrocytes in vivo. The term ‘T-transformation’ applies to the production of the specific receptor-T in erythrocytes through the activity of an enzyme formed by various bacterial species1.
