| Contribution | Observed anthrax bacillus in human. |
| Reference | Schwabe |
| Notes | Transmitted disease from man to man, and horse to horse, by inoculation of blood. Cited by Schwabe (1964) but neither date nor reference given. Cited as before work of Koch, so 1875 is arbitrarily assigned here. Pasteur referred to it in writing in 1880, again implying that it preceded the 1876 work of Koch. |
