BLOOD AND BLOOD DERIVATIVES — COHN 439 



The fundamental studies on fibrin clots and fibrin films have been carried 

 out by Ferry and Morrison (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 566, 1944), their use 

 in the surface treatment of burns by Hawn, Bering, Bailey, and Armstrong (Journ. 

 Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 580, 1944), in the repair of dural defects by Bailey and 

 Ingraham (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 597, 1944), and by Ingraham and Bailey 

 (Journ. Amer. Med. Assoc, vol. 126, p. 680, 1944). Fibrin foam was developed 

 as a hemostatic agent by Bering (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 586, 1944). Its 

 use in neurosurgery has been described by Ingraham and Bailey (Journ. Neuro- 

 surg., vol. 1, p. 23, 1944), by Bailey and Ingraham (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, 

 p. 591, 1944), and by Woodhall (Journ. Amer. Med. Assoc, vol. 126, p. 419, 1944). 



O. Blood-grouping Globulins. 



The classical work on blood grouping is by Landsteiner (Centralbl. Bakt., vol. 28, 

 p. 357, 1900; Wien, Klin. Wochenschr., vol. 14, p. 1132, 1901). Blood-grouping 

 technique has recently been considered in detail by Schiff and Boyd (Blood group- 

 ing technique, Interscience Publishers, New York, 1942), and blood groups and 

 transfusions by Wiener (Blood groups and transfusion, 3d ed., Charles C. Thomas, 

 Springfield, 111., 1943). For the separation and concentration of isoagglutinins 

 from group specific human serum or plasma see Thalhimer and Myron (Journ. 

 Amer. Med. Assoc, vol. 118, p. 370, 1942), Pillemer (Science, vol. 97, p. 75, 1943), 

 and Pillemer, Oncley, Melin, Elliott, and Hutchinson (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, 

 p. 550, 1944), and for their appraisal see DeGowin (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, 

 p. 554, 1944). 



H. y-Globulin Antibodies {Immune Globulins). 



The earlier literature on "The chemistry of antigens and antibodies" is 

 reviewed by Marrack (Med. Res. Counc, Spec. Rep. Ser., No. 230, His Majesty's 

 Stationery Office, London, 1938). The most recent investigations upon the chemi- 

 cal properties of the y-globulins are considered by von Mutzenbecher (Biochem. 

 Zeitschr., vol. 266, pp. 226, 250, 259, 1933), McFarlane (Biochem. Journ., vol. 29, 

 pp. 407, 660, 1175, 1209, 1935), Kekwick (Biochem. Journ., vol. 32, p. 552, 1938), 

 Rabat and Pedersen (Science, vol. 87, p. 372, 1938), Heidelberger (Cold Spring 

 Harbor Symposium on Quantitative Biology, vol. 6, p. 369, 1938; Chem. Rev., 

 vol. 24, p. 323, 1939), Rabat (Journ. Exp. Med., vol. 69, p. 103, 1939), Cohn, 

 McMeekin, Oncley, Newell, and Hughes (Journ. Amer. Chem. Soc, vol. 62, p. 

 3386, 1940), Cohn, Luetscher, Oncley, Armstrong, and Davis (Journ. Amer. Chem. 

 Soc, vol. 62, p. 3396, 1940), Cohn (Chem. Rev., vol. 28, p. 395, 1941; Proc Amer. 

 Philos. Soc, vol. 88, p. 159, 1944), Cohn, Oncley, Strong, Hughes, and Armstrong 

 (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 417, 1944), Williams, Petermann, Colovos, Goodloe, 

 Oncley, and Armstrong (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 433, 1944), the concentra- 

 tion of certain antibodies in globulin fractions derived from human blood plasma 

 by Enders (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 510, 1944), and the use of the y-globulin 

 antibodies in the prophylaxis and treatment of measles by Stokes, Maris, and 

 Gellis (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 531, 1944), by Ordman, Jennings, and Janeway 

 (Journ. Clin. Inv., vol. 23, p. 541, 1944), by Janeway (Journ. Amer. Med. Assoc, 

 vol. 126, p. 674, 1944), and by Greenberg, Frant, and Rutstein (Journ. Amer. Med. 

 Assoc, vol. 126, p. 944, 1944).
