Abstract
Manganese by mouth causes very irregular responses[long dash]sometimes favorable for hemoglobin regeneration, sometimes not. Manganese is probably somewhat less potent than Cu salts which also are uncertain in their reaction in this type of experiment. Zinc in our experiments shows reactions which are practically negative. Iron salts in various combinations with Mn, Cu or Zn, give hemoglobin production levels almost exactly similar to the production expected from the Fe alone. There is no evidence for summation of these effects. Aluminum and Sb in the dosage employed show no evidence of a potent effect. Potassium- and Ca-phos-phates have little if any influence upon hemoglobin regeneration. Sodium iodide is to be classed as almost inert and it may even at times inhibit somewhat the effect of Fe or Cu.
