splenic

Pasteur began the examination of splenic fever by securing some of the blood from an animal dying from it.

Pasteur hastened to apply his discovery of the attenuation of the virus of chicken cholera to the virus of splenic fever.

In spite of the splenic tumour we have to deal then with a pure lymphatic leukæmia.

It results from dysenteric perforation of the bowel, from rupture of a splenic abscess, or from rupture of the spleen itself.

Koch was not the discoverer of the parasite of splenic fever.
