N2  - During the past few years, a number of articles by Louros and A. Schmechel or Louros alone dealing with the reticulo-endothelial system have appeared in periodicals. They constitute the basis for this monograph. These writers with Scheyer have contributed and also E. Gaessler, who concludes that ultraviolet rays, roentgen rays and the light from mercury lamps have little effect on the course of events when white mice arc infected with streptococci. The investigations are reported from a municipal clinic in Dresden and the authors are evidently interested chiefly in gynecology and obstetrics. The experiments were with white mice exclusively, and large numbers of animals were used to learn the action of various substances on streptococcal infection and the behavior of the reticulo-endothelial system when the agents were used. They included blocking of the reticulo-endothelial cells with different colloids. In many of the experiments the severity of the infection was lessened.
