Abstract
WITH reference to the letter of Dr. Albert Fischer published in NATURE of June 29 (135, 1075), readers of this journal may be interested to be reminded of the following quotation from a paper by C. Delezenne, published in Ann. de Physiol. et de Physicochim. biologique (2, 537 ; 1926): ” Outre la faculté essentielle qui le définit, le fibrinferment possède encore la curieuse propriété, découverte par BORDET et GENGOU, de faire luimême naître le fibrinferment, ou tout au moins d'en accélérer considerablement la production, lorsqu’ on l'ajoute à un milieu qui en renferme tous les généerateurs.”
