precipitation in vivo is a likely cause in the case of the saccharated oxide but improbable with the dextran, dextrin, or sorbitol complexes. The rate of reticulo-endothelial uptake from the circulation, the rate of release of dissociated iron from reticuloendothelial cells, dissociation of the complex in the circulation, the intrinsic ionic iron content of the complex, and anaphylactic phenomena have all been postulated. It is clear that each complex needs
