This zymotoxic group, however, is not an integral part of the receptor, but is easily broken off from it, in the manner described below. As is explained later, the power of the lysins becomes sus- pended, but not lost, on being heated to 55° or 56° C. In this condition they are said to be inactivated. They become active again when certain fresh serum is added—not necessarily fresh.

This will all be discussed and explained later. For the present purpose it is sufficient to bear in mind that lysin becomes inactivated and may be reactivated. So the lysins act differently from agglutinins and precipitins. They must have peculiar receptors which unite, on the other hand, with the cells which they disintegrate and, on the other, with a ferment-producing substance easily de- stroyed by heat. These receptors must possess two haptophore.
