means OF experiments on monkeys and
guinea pigs.
His first experiment on guinea pigs
were made with goats serum. A fe-
culture from several sources of the
period of two weeks.
BY using large injections the doctor
saved the pigs. When the goat which
had been infected with meningitis died
the serum obtained from II was found
TO have both preventive and curative
properties.
The serum from monkeys protected
guinea pigs from what otherwise would
have been a fatal disease OF the mem
ingitis germs.
on the whole the immune serum saw
de more guinea pigs than the normal
serum. The serum of an infected horse
also rendered the guinea pigs immune.
Dr. Flexner got an antl-serum from
rabbits which, II lnJected Immediately
