Synopsis
Infectious disease, 1912 style: a window into early lab work and clinical case reporting.
This issue presents a detailed case study of a fatal pyemia linked to an anaerobic bacillus, alongside wide-ranging bacteriology research and public health topics from the era.
This volume highlights how researchers approached diagnosis, postmortem findings, and organism identification in the age before modern molecular tools. It also surveys a broad spectrum of topics—from pellagra and diphtheria to water disinfection and pneumonia—offering a panoramic view of infectious disease thinking at the Memorial Institute for Infectious Diseases.
- A thorough clinical narrative of pyemia related to an appendix problem, including blood work and postmortem observations
- Microscopic and morphological descriptions of fusiform and related bacilli, with colonial behaviors noted
- How early researchers classified and tested bacteria, including sugar fermentation and growth patterns
- A broad table of contents covering topics from autolysis, immunity, to outbreaks in the early 1900s
Ideal for readers with an interest in medical history, early microbiology, and the development of infectious disease research.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book reports on research into the causes of pyemia, a deadly disease spread through the bloodstream and often resulting from appendicitis. The author examines a fatal case of pyemia resulting from an anaerobic polymicrobial infection caused by a strain of Bacillus fusiformis alongside aerobic bacteria, an unprecedented occurrence. Most cases of pyemia are caused by a combination of various bacteria, so this work offers new insight into the role of specific microorganisms in the progression of the disease and the treatments that might target them. Given the frequency with which Bacillus fusiformis is found in diseased tissue but its seeming harmlessness when isolated, the authorâs findings, which build upon previous research into its many forms, could prove vital in understanding the progression and treatment of a range of diseases. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331945048_0
