Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the work done around the standardization of Tetanus Antitoxin, establishing uniformity for this product for the first time in the United States. It begins by listing the differing methods of testing tetanus antitoxin before the adoption of a universal American unit, which ensures the serums found on the market are uniformly potent. The author then provides a historical review of tetanus, from the learned Aretaeus of Kappadoza to the present day. Of particular interest is the section on the work done by the author and other scientists to develop a stable, dried tetanus poison. The final chapters of this book delve into the chemical nature of the tetanus toxin, which remains a mystery to this day. The insights provided in this book have been crucial in the development of the tetanus antitoxin we rely on today, and serve as an important reminder of the ongoing battle against tetanus and other infectious diseases.
