Excerpt from Researches on Micro-Organisms: Including an Account of Recent Experiments on the Destruction of Microbes in Certain Infectious Diseases Phthisis, EtcThe connection between microbes and disease is of the utmost importance to medical men and others, but it must not be supposed because the blood and tissues of man and animals (suffering from contagious disease) con tain certain microbes, that these microbes are necessarily the cause, or even indirectly the cause, of the disease. Not until the investigator has obtained, by pure cultiva tions in an artificial sterilized medium, the microbes in a perfectly pure state, and then, by injecting into the blood, etc., of a healthy animal a small portion of the purified culture, the disease is reproduced, can one say that a particular disease is the result of the life-history of a certain microbe.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
