Veterinary Microbiology and Microbial Disease
P.J.Quinn, B.K.Markey, M.E.Carter, W.J.Donnelly,Although the concept of infectious diseases is to be found in the works of classical Greek and Roman writers, their microbial aetiology was not clearly established until the mid-nineteenth century when it was confirmed by the sci- entific contributions of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch. During the intervening centuries a number of investigators hypothesized about the nature of contagion and disease. Girolamo Fracastoro was one of the first to suggest, in his treatise De contagione published in 1546, that animate agents were responsible for disease. One hundred years later, Anthony van Leeuwenhoek demonstrated, in a sample of pus from his gums, microscopic 'animalcules', which were later identified as infectious agents.
