It isnot so to wicst tetanus toxin from the nervoustissue with antitoxin, and accoidingly tetanus is notoften cured by anlitoxin. One of the strongest proofs of Ehrliehs conception ofantitoxin and is that furnished by Wassernianas experinien consistsin peiinittingtetanus toxinto stand forsome time incontact withnervous tissue;it will then befound that thetluid part haslost all of itstoxic proper-ty, and fur-ther, that thecellular por-tion which pre-sumably con-tains the toxinis also nottoxic. Thisagrees full ywith Ehrlichsidea that a toxin attacks the cells that have receptors forit. and when .so combined is harmless for other cells. Inthis case tlie nerve cells have combined with the toxinjust as does antitoxin and hav
