Measure out twenty minimal hæmolytic doses of hæmolysin, add to the erythrocyte solution on the test-tube.

The chief exponent of the one, Rindfleisch, taught that the nucleus of the erythroblasts leaves the cell, which thereby becomes a complete erythrocyte, whilst the nucleus itself, by the aid of the small remnant of protoplasm which surrounds it, takes up new material from the surrounding plasma, manufactures hæmoglobin and so becomes a fresh erythroblast.

The view of Kölliker and Neumann that the nuclei gradually decay in the interior of the cell is not supported by the observation of a process, but by the fact that in suitable material, for instance, foetal bone-marrow, liver blood, and leukæmic blood, the transition from erythroblast to erythrocyte is shewn by all phases of nuclear metamorphosis.

Schmidt without making use of the principal distinction made by Ehrlich, also concludes from his researches on sections of the bone-marrow of animals in extra-uterine life, that both kinds of erythrocyte formation occur.

When the parasite has grown to about one-third the diameter of the erythrocyte the latter shows characteristic red Schüffner’s dots or “fine stippling,” after staining with Romanowsky’s solution.
