BLOOD.

(From the Laboratory of the Jewish Hospital of St. Louis, St. Louis.)
periments showed this not to be the case. If one and the same
batch of yeast is used for consecutive determinations of the reduc-
ing non-sugars in two portions of a blood filtrate, the second de-
termination, where dilution does not enter, yields no higher values
than the first. Even more convincing than this were experiments
with arabinose; the reduction exerted by solutions of this non-
fermentable sugar was not lowered by treatment with yeast, show-
ing that the dilution is entirely negligible. Apparently very little
water is retained after centrifugation between the yeast cells,
