In the August 1927 issue of the "Kazan Medical Journal" I reported the results of my experiments on immunization of rabbits with crystalline horse hemoglobin and then noted the extreme importance of obtaining hemoglobin-precipitin serum for forensic medicine. At that time, I immunized four rabbits with human red blood cell extract and six rabbits with crystalline horse hemoglobin. I will not repeat here the results of immunization, I will only remind you that immunization with an extract of red blood cells did not give a specific serum, while immunization with crystal hemoglobin gave results quite similar to those obtained by Higaschi in 1923.
