Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the discovery and investigation of a novel pathogenic bacillus, now known as the Bacillus pyogenes filiformis, by the renowned bacteriologist Simon Flexner. The bacillus was initially isolated from an infected laboratory rabbit and was found to be the causative agent of a range of inflammatory conditions in experimental animals. Despite extensive attempts, the bacillus proved challenging to cultivate using conventional methods. The author conducted a series of experiments to characterize the bacillus, examining its morphology, staining properties, thermal death point, and virulence. He observed unique pleomorphic forms, irregular staining patterns, and a low thermal death point. Animal experiments demonstrated that the bacillus could induce pleurisy, pericarditis, pneumonia, peritonitis, and abscess formation. Intravenous inoculation resulted in a generalized septicemia. The book provides a detailed account of the author's research, including his efforts to cultivate the organism and his observations on its pathogenicity. It contributes to our understanding of bacterial infections and the development of new therapeutic approaches. 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. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780260140746_0
