Beeteriologiats were for a long time guzzled to account foe the fact that the white blood -cells would sometimes re- fuse this feast of microbes, and many saw in it reason to doubt that the Oa- greytes had any real part in the preven- tion or cure 4-).( disease. 13u1 recently Doctor Wright. an linglisliscientist. has advanced a plaueiblo explanation cf Ibis occurrence. He says that the pha- geeyles will not attack bacteria until the inner have been acted upon liy a certain substance contained hi the fluid portion et the blood, %%bleb in some way snakes them altraetive lo Ula white blood-corpmems. In other words, the cells of the organiem will not eat raw bacteria, but must have them served in a palatable form. The sul shame which thus prepares them for ingeetion is cancel opsonin, from a Greek word meaning to prepare food. Tbe quantity of this opsonin in the blood itt not always the same, whirl' explains why a person may be resitg- lug to a disease at one time, and yet later, when again exposed, may suc- cumb, It impears, also, Hint opsonin is not ning1a definite substance, but that tech variety of microbe must be acted upon by a separate subetance, the op- .winin for the typhoid-lacilli, for ex- ample, having no effect upon the germ of tuberculosis, This explains why a person may re- sist nue CliN'ase anti readily fall a vie - Om to another.
