Abstract
1. (1) Serum proteins determinations have been made in adults and children in three different parts of Uganda. The people living in the districts visited consume different types of diet, and the incidence of malaria among them varies. 2. (2) The serum protein pattern observed in all three districts differed materially from that commonly observed among Europeans, and the patterns observed in the three districts also differed from each other. 3. (3) The results are discussed from the point of view of their bearing upon the cause of the high gamma-globulin and low albumin values frequently observed.
