Although attempts at immunization against and cure of disease by inoculation with bacteria or their products have been carried on for years, it remained for Sir A. E. Wright of England, to place the subject on a scientific basis, and to advance an expla nation Oi how a vaccine acts and why it does good. Some years before Wright worked out the proof of how the body overcomes certain bacterial infections and how it is stimulated by the use of a vaccine, he was treating successfully with vaccines cases of acne, furunculosis, etc., which had resisted all other forms of treatment, but he was working in the dark. It was empirical therapy and he could not guage the proper size of dose and the proper interval of dosage. As a result, he did not have the uni formly brilliant results that now attend his treatment.
That the control of infection depends to a great extent upon the phenomenon of phagocytosis by the leucocytes has been grant ed almost universal credence since Metchnikoff first gave to the world his theory that all infections, when cured, are overcome by the leucocytes engulfing and destroying the invading microbes. He placed all the initiative, so to speak, in the leucocytes. He thought that all that was necessary for a leucocyte to ingest bac teria was for it to get near enough to them. He regarded the leucocytes as scavengers with a limitless appetite, that traveled around in the blood stream, ready to clean up any germs with which they came in contact. It remained for Wright to prove that the leucocyte by itself does not possess the power to ingest bacteria, that it will not ingest a germ unless that germ has been made palatable for it by the action of a certain substance in the blood. To this substance Wright gave the name Opsonin, from the Latin verb opsono, meaning, I prepare food for.
