Abstract
From the transfusion of blackwater fever blood into a normal healthy adult with a previous history of malaria, it would appear that there are no specific parasites or haemolytic strains of malaria concerned in the genesis of blackwater fever, since the recipient of haemolysing blackwater fever blood failed to develop blackwater fever, or any other sign of haemolysis, although he went down with malignant tertian malaria 11 days after he received the blackwater fever blood. The possibility of his having been infected from other sources was absolutely excluded.Keywords
