EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS 



In the electrophoresis diagrams of chicken plasma, the fibrinogen does 

 not form the clear-cut boundary characteristic of fibrinogen in human 

 plasma, but lies above the advance portion of the gamma globulin bound- 

 ary, as shown by the superposed plasma and serum diagrams reproduced

1. Determinations of fibrinogen concentration made by dropping 

 an ordinate at the minimum on each side of the fibrinogen maximum, there- 

 fore, represent an overestimate. The fibrinogen content might be expected 

 to be given with greatest precision by the difference in protein concentra- 

 tion between the plasma and the corresponding serum. 



In the present investigation parallel plasma and serum analyses were 

 made on 41 pairs of solutions. The results are listed in Tables I, II, and 

 III. All but five of the sera (the five exceptions are marked with a dagger
