Sinopsis
Excerpt from Immunochemistry
It is evident that the objection recently raised by Ehrlich and Sachs to this manner of investigation, namely, that it does not enter upon the mode by which the living body produces these so-called antibodies, is quite true. An investigation of the chemical relations of toxin and antitoxin need not carry with it an elucidation of the synthesis of the antitoxin. But I fancy that there are many who are so deeply interested in the chemical be haviour of these substances that they will find an investi gation of this question well worthy of study. And for myself, furthermore, I believe that the physiological side of the problem, alluded to by Ehrlich, will not find a satis factory solution until the more simple Chemical aspect is elucidated.

Excerpt from Immunochemistry: The Application of the Principles of Physical Chemistry to the Study of the Biological Antibodies
The following pages contain a summary of six lectures on the Immunity Reactions delivered at the University of California, in Berkeley, California, during the summer session of 1904. The object of the lectures was to illustrate the application of the methods of physical chemistry to the study of the theory of toxins and antitoxins. The idea that the reciprocal action of toxin and antitoxin is of the same nature as a chemical reaction is nearly as old as the study of these phenomena, which was inaugurated by the discovery of the diphtheria antitoxin by Behring and Kitasato in 1890. The German school, led by Ehrlich, the renowned Director of the Prussian Serum Institute in Frankfort-on-the-Main, has in particular done much work in support of the opinion that the interaction of toxin and antitoxin is of the nature of a chemical reaction; whereas the French school, led by Metschnikoff, tried to show that the effect of an antitoxin is chiefly of physiological order, an antitoxin was supposed to stimulate in some way the organic tissues in their struggle against the attack of the poison.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the application of the methods of physical chemistry to the study of the interaction of toxins and antitoxins in the body's immune system. This chemical approach to immunology was not widely accepted at the time of the book's writing, as most scientists held the physiological hypothesis, which stated that antibodies stimulated the body's defense mechanisms rather than chemically neutralizing toxins. The author puts forward a compelling argument against the then-prevailing physiological hypothesis, citing evidence from studies demonstrating that the reaction between toxin and antitoxin is reversible and follows the law of mass action just like other chemical reactions. This book was instrumental in establishing the chemical basis of immunology, a field that continues to inform medical research and treatment today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330807637_0
