Synopsis

Excerpt from Report of Investigations Into the Pathogeny of Diphtheria

The morphological elements being thus determined, and being found to present nothing sin generic in form, we proceeded to our proposed experimentation, which was to inoate living animals with diphtheritic membrane under varying conditions. The idea was that if, as alleged,1 inoation will produce diphtheria in the inoated animal, then, by varying the conditions, the nature of the poisonous principle and the determining circumstances of infection might be discovered. The animal chosen for experimentation was the rabbit, partly because we had not the facilities for dealing with larger or more troublesome animals, and partly because some German investigations, with which it was desirable that ours might be compared, were also conducted upon rabbits.
