Abstract
Conclusion
1. Staphylokinase, injected intravenously into a dog, caused appearance of active serum lysin, accompanied by a fall in prolyasin and antilysin. The blood became incoagulable presumably due to lysis of the circulating fibrinogen. A precipitous fall in blood pressure was also observed.
2. Dog serum lysin, injected intravenously into a dog, also resulted in the appearance of active serum lysin, fall in antilysin, but no appreciable change in prolysin. Incoagulable blood, devoid of fibrinogen, was again obtained.
