Experimental Production of the “Striatal Blood Picture” in the Carp by the “Peroxidase Puncture.”

19 th Report of the Peroxidase Reaction

Abstract

The “striatal blood symptom” was seen by Sato and Yoshimatsu in typical cases of acute lethargic encephalitis with ophthalmoplegia (1922). Then an experimental production of the “striatal blood picture” by means of the “peroxidase puncture” was made with success in the rabbit (1924). The same picture was produced by me in the carp (1926). The two absolute necessary conditions for the production of the characteristic blood picture were discussed together with the explanation of the reason for the failure of experiments hitherto to produce the characteristic blood picture in the frog.
