The "Lateral-chain Theory" of Immunity 113 by means of water, alcohol, or acetone, according to the nature of the body, to remove all these substances quickly and easily from the ; "This is most simply and convincingly demonstrated in the case of the anilin dyes. The nervous system stained with methylene-blue or the granules of the cells stained with neutral red at once yield up the dye in the presence of alcohol. We are, therefore, obliged to conclude that none of the foreign bodies just mentioned enter synthetically into the cell complex, but are merely con- tained in the cells in their free ; .... "Hence with regard to the pharmacologically active bodies in general, it is not allowable to assume that they possess definite atom groups, which enter into combination with correspond- ing groups of the protoplasm. This corresponds, as I may remark beforehand, with the incapacity of all these substances to produce antitoxins in the animal body. We must, therefore, conclude that only certain substances, food-stuffs, par excellence, are endowed with properties admitting of their being, in the previously defined sense, chemically bound by the cells of the organism. We are obliged to adopt the view that the protoplasm is equipped with certain atomic groups, whose function especially consists in fixing to themselves certain food- stuffs of importance to the ; We may assume that the protoplasm consists of a special executive center, in connection with which are nutritive side-chains, which possess a certain degree of independence and which may differ from one another according to the requirements of the different cells. And as these side-chains have the office of attaching to themselves certain food-stufifs, we must also assume an atom-grouping in these food-stu£[s them- selve
