Differentiation of patients with subtype IIb-like von Willebrand's disease by means of perfusion experiments with reconstituted blood.

abstract：:This review article acknowledges the pioneering contribution of William Bate Hardy in shaping the concept of mast cell heterogeneity. In two outstanding papers, published in 1894 and 1895, he focussed on the 'wandering cells' (the modern leucocytes) in different mammalian species and distinguished two types of granula...
