John Tyndall (1820-1893) described his experiments with a hermetically sealed chamber in which the atmospheric dust had been allowed to settle; sterilized infusions protected within this chamber remained uninfected for months, while similar infusions exposed to air all showed bacterial growth. Tyndall's researches, along with those of Pasteur, dealt the final blow to the doctrine of spontaneous generation and advanced the understanding of Germ Theory. x, 741 pp. 99 plates. 4to.
