Rahner55 reportedsimilarly. Heider m discovered in the water of the Donau-Vienna Canal, at a time whencholera was not prevalent, a bacillus very closely resembling that of named it the Vibrio danubicus. It was probably the same described byC. Its import is not yet known, but it seems to be either a varietyof the cholera-bacillus or a closely related organism. 3. Bacillus of Typhoid Fever.—A characteristic parasite was dis-covered in 1880 by Eberth5S in,the implicated viscera in PIG. 75.—Bacilli of Typhoid (pure cultivation : eye-piece III., homogeneous immersion, objectiveZeiss J.,). From a preparation by Dr. Paltauf. Similar observations were afterwards made by Klebs and Eppinger,b9and these have been confirmed by the researches of R. Koch, Meyer,and Friedlander, and more recently by Gaffky and very many Gaffky describes the fungus as consisting of rods, in length equal toone-third the diameter of a red-blood corpuscle, and occasionally formingthreads of greater length by the aggregation of several segments. Theyare about three times as long as they are broad, and rounded off at theextremities. Spores are sometimes to be seen within the rods. Theystain best in a concentrated watery solution of methylene blue, andLofflers process (v. Chapter I.) is the most appropriate to the are not stained by Grams method.
