| Notes | See also 1857. In a paper in Bull. Hist. Med. circa 1991, Carter said that Brauell's work was based on Pollender's work. In 1858 paper: anthrax vibrions were not found in sheep that did not have anthrax; the disease sometimes followed injection of blood that did not contain vibrions [a blow to causation]; fetal blood did not contain vibrions even though the maternal sheep blood did, and fetal blood did not transmit the disease [did he discuss filtration?]. |
