Abstract

ON surveying the literature pertaining to this subject, it was found that workers in the Eastern European countries1 maintain that the use of convalescent serum in burnt patients is of considerable therapeutic value due to a hypothetical antibody to burnt skin2. Workers in the Western world3–7 in the same field have been unable as yet to prove the existence of such an immunological mechanism and have claimed that any antibody demonstrated so far has been one produced by bacteria, thus not specific to burnt tissue.
