Microbiological Studies of Blood in Cancer^*

( Section of Experimental Pathology, University of Texas M. D. Anderson Hospital and Tumor Institute, Houston, Texas)

Attention is called to the potential usefulness of the microbiological type of approach to research in cancer diagnosis, and studies have been made of responses of lactic acid bacteria to a variety of blood fractions. Responses of four such organisms to tungstic acid filtrates of serum have been used for illustrative purposes, but with no claim for a test procedure of diagnostic value.
