Abstract
Summary
1) The action of normal mouse liver powder in removing AC properties from sera appears to be associated with Ca++ and Mg++. These ions eliminated AC activity from γ globulin in a manner similar to that of mouse liver powder. 2) Varying the amounts of Ca++ and Mg++ with individual human sera produced marked changes in their reactivity with complement. The introduction of Ca++ and Mg++ is less practical at present than the use of liver powder to eliminate AC properties.
