Abstract
The authors have developed a method for titrating the toxin and antitoxin of hemolytic (scarlet) streptococcus. This reaction is analogous to the Ramon reaction used in the titration of diphtheria toxin and antitoxin, and its technique is essentially the same. The use of a concentrated streptococcal toxin has great advantages in terms of a significant acceleration of the reaction compared to the untreated toxin.
