EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of medicine and bacteriology. Taken from Ferdinand Hueppe's groundbreaking work, "Die Methoden der Backtierien-Forschung" in 1889, this image showcases various specimens related to pneumonia, tuberculosis, and anthrax. In the foreground, we see two distinct cultures: one representing pneumonia (labeled as number 5) and another made from albumen extracted from a rotten egg (number 6). These cultures were crucial for understanding the growth patterns and characteristics of these diseases. Moving towards the center of the image, numbers 7 and 8 represent tuberculosis samples prepared by none other than Robert Koch himself. Koch's contributions to medical science are legendary, particularly his discoveries surrounding tuberculosis. The blue-stained TB bacillus (number 11) further emphasizes its significance in research. The photograph also includes sputum collected from a TB patient (number 9), highlighting the importance of studying real-life samples to better understand diseases. Lastly, number 10 represents an anthrax bacillus specimen - another area where Koch made remarkable advancements. Ferdinand Hueppe worked closely with Koch during this period, contributing greatly to bacteriological research. This image serves as a testament to their collaborative efforts that revolutionized our understanding of infectious diseases. As we gaze upon this historical artifact captured over a century ago in Wiesbaden, it reminds us of how far we have come in combating deadly illnesses through scientific exploration and dedicated researchers like Hueppe
