Abstract
The role of the kidney as an excretory organ for formed particles has been investigated by numerous observers, the experimentation of whose technic has varied greatly and whose conclusions have been diametrically opposed. In these studies, the particles more immediately concerned are bacteria coursing in the circulation.
