Larger crystals may be obtained by evaporatingthe acetone extract about one-half, transferring it to a stop-pered vessel and allowing it to remain over night.

Add 5 ofstrained defibrinated blood, again bring the temperature to80 C, remove the flame and allow the mixture* to the crystals under the microscope and compare themwith those reproduced in Figs. 58 and 59, page 1^4. 12. Catalytic Action.—To about 10 drops of blood in atest-tube add twice the volume of hydrogen peroxide, withoutshaking. The mixture foams. What is the cause of thisphenomenon ? [3. Preparation of Haematin.—Place 100 of lakedbli k m1 in a beaker and add 95 per cent alcohol until precipitationceases. What bodies are precipitated? Transfer the precipi-tate to a flask and boil with 95 per cent alcohol previouslyac
