But this is by no means the case; quinin, which is not a specific for dysentery, exercises a more powerful amœbicidal effect than does emetin. Furthermore, what is even of greater significance, is the experimental demonstration that methyl‐psychotrin, which differs from emetin only by two hydrogen atoms, is more strongly amœbicidal in vitro, but is apparently wholly devoid of any therapeutic effect in human infection, even though it may be given in relatively enormous doses because of its low toxicity.",
