AB - WE were unaware of the application by Dr. A. J. Quick and his associates during the past year of the hitherto unused term ‘erythrocytin’ to describe a clotting factor they discovered in erythrocytes. To avoid confusion attendant upon using the same term for two separate factors, we therefore propose renaming the factor we obtained from erythrocytes which inhibits the antibacterial activity of 8-hydroxyquinoline—a chelating agent. In future, we will therefore use the term ‘erythrochelatin’ instead of ‘erythrocytin’ to describe this inhibitor1.
