This was supplemented a little later by Fleming's Omnis nucleus e nucleo, when still more refined methods of observation had shown that the part of the cell which always first undergoes change preparatory to new cell-formation is the all-essential nucleus.

This is an interesting fact, especially as, according to Neuberg, the pentose contained in animal nucleo-proteids is _l_-xylose.

Recently, an anti-melitensis serum, from animals injected with the nucleo-proteid material from the organisms, has been used with some success.

The filtrate is now treated with 5% acetic acid until a precipitate of nucleo-proteid ceases to form; the fluid is filtered and the clear filtrate (which should not show any turbidity with a drop of 5% acetic acid) is tested for its proteid content, which represents the serum albumin.

When the combined percentage of globulins and serum albumin is subtracted from the total proteid percentage we have the percentage of nucleo-proteid.
