G46 VITAL ACTIONS OF THE LOWER FUNGI. 



It is probable that we must explain in an analogous 

 manner the former experiments by Salomon sen as to the 

 action of jequirity on frogs (p. 348) ; further, the in- 

 fluence of papayotin on the number of bacteria in the 

 blood, as observed by Rossbach. The investigations in 

 this direction must be still more extended and varied 

 before we can draw general conclusions from them ; we 

 may, however, expect that they will ultimately enable us 

 to obtain definite views as to the more intimate details 

 of the battle which occurs between cells and bacteria.
