Whatever may be the final form of the theories of Ehrlich as to the constitution of the bacterial toxines and as to the essential nature of immunity there can be no doubt of the stimulus they have given and are likely to give to inquiries relating to these subjects. As the present paper is intended to give a preliminary account of some researches bearing on the reactions of certain toxines it may be useful to recall the main features of the theories in question so far as they relate to the toxines investigated.
