Sinopsis

Excerpt from Reprints of Three Editorials Regarding the Priority in Demonstrating the Toxic Effect of Matter Accompanying the Tubercle Bacillus and Its Nidus

In this number of the reporter Professor Samuel G. Dixon, of Philadel phia, presents a short article in which attention is called to the fact that a year ago - Medical News, Philadelphia, October19, 1889 - he had proposed the lines upon which preventive inoculations against tuberculosis might be expected to be successfully carried out, and that he had already succeeded in a certain number of instances in producing immunity against the disease in animals. This announce ment antedates by so much the announce ments of Koch, and Grancher and Martin, that American medical men must feel an interest in maintaining the priority which belongs to this country.

In this particular matter it may be pointed out that Dr. Dixon in his announce ment gives some indications as to the method by which he Obtains the attenuated Virus used in his experiments. Intima tions of this sort are totally lacking in the communications of Koch, Grancher and Martin.
