ACID SUSPECTED DF
BEING T-B USE
(Aiworiatrd l'n-m Ian.'rt Win-)
WASHINGTON, April 23. Dis
covery of a "fatty" acid which
may have far reaching effect In
science's search for a tuberculosis
cure was reported today to the
academy of sciences.
Tlie acid, a chemical substance
which Is almost a solid at certain
temperatures, Induces the growth
of tubercles when Injected into
normal animals. It may be the
root of tuberculosis and a study of
its formation in human cells and
Its activity may provide a new
angle of attack against the dis
ease. The finding Is the result of re
search In Rockefeller institute by
Dr. Florence R. Sabtn, only wo
man member of the acudemy, Dr.
C. A. iJoan, and Rr. C. F. Forkner.
Tho work centers around the
hope that a means of curing the
diseflse may be found by studying
the chemistry of the bacillus which
acts as a parasite of one of the
cells of the body.
One part of the study Is to tear
apart the component elements of
the cell; another Is to produce
these fractions In large quantities;
and the third is to Bhow the effect
of each In influencing the growth
of Ihe tubercle bacillus.
The chemical work In connec
tion with the cooperative study is
being done In Sterling laboratory,
Yale university, by Professor T. U.
Johnson and Dr. R. J. Anderson.
The work of Dr. Sabin and her
eo-workers has been to find the
effect of the separated substances.
One, the hitherto unknown "fatty
acid, is such power that doses In
troduced into the tissues of a rab
bit easily produce reactions situ
11 to tuberculosis.
The newly found arid has the
power of causing rapid multipli
cation of one strain of blood und
tissue cells In the body to the ex
clusion of all the other cells of
which the body Is made up.
