Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Studies Upon Leprosy: XIV. The Artificial Cultivation of the Bacillus of Leprosy, XV. Attempts at Specific Therapy in Leprosy The greatest obstacle that has been met with in the past investigations of leprosy has been our inability to artificially propagate the bacillus, either on culture media or in laboratory animals. Without this knowledge studies in specific therapy were at least difficult, if not quite impossible; and studies in transmission were limited chiefly to clinical observations, or to the mere recording of the findings of lepra bacilli in certain tissues or discharges of lepers, or insects or objects that had come into contact with lepers. If the results which we record here are confirmed by others and become generally accepted, there should result a renewed interest in this disease in both leprous and nonleprous countries, and such interest may possibly result in the acquisition of knowledge that will be of use in the control of this disease. Review Of Literature. Bacterial rods were first described as being present in a Ieproma by Hansen(1) in 1868 and 1873, and by Vandeycke Carter( 1); these observations were soon afterwards confirmed by Klebs (1). Au-pitz (1), Daniellsen (1), and Neisser (1). About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
