A clear-cut differentiation of human blood, aside from the blood groups, could be made by means of special agglutinating immune sera.

In view of the latter circumstance the results reported do not imply any change in the scheme of the four blood groups.

The body of serological evidence leads to the inference of a high degree of biochemical differentiation among individuals.
