In 1943, Horstmann and Tatlock reported detecting cold agglutinins in the serum of patients with primary atypical pneumonia. Fifty years after Landsteinerâs findings, the term âcold agglutinin diseaseâ was coined by Schubothe.
Mulattoes were the direct offspring of plantation rapes. Slave masters often threat the female slaves if they resist the masterâs desire of having intercourse. If they fought back, the female slaves will be whipped, will be beaten up, or worse of all, will be killed.
Kumquats are a group of small fruit-bearing trees in the flowering plant family Rutaceae, either forming the genus Fortunella, or placed within Citrus sensu lato. The edible fruit closely resembles that of the orange (Citrus sinensis), but is much smaller and oval, being approximately the size and shape of an olive. They are slow-growing evergreen shrubs or short trees, from 2.5 to 4.5 metres (8 to 15 ft) tall, with sparse branches, sometimes bearing small thorns. The leaves are dark glossy green, and the flowers pure yellow, similar to other citrus flowers, borne singly or clustered in the leaf-axils. The kumquat tree produces 30 to 50 fruit each year. The tree can be hydrophytic, with the fruit often found floating on water near shore during the ripe season. The plant is native to south Asia and the Asia-Pacific.
