‎PREMIERE EDITION FRANCAISE ---- BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- "TYNDALL made important contributions to the advancement of bacteriology. He showed that contaminating materials, such as bacteria, can be airborne, but that they may be fractionally sterilized by heat. He also demonstrated the growth-inhibiting action of molds such as penicillium on bacteria". (Heirs of Hippocrates N° 1881 1st english ed.) ---- "TYNDALL, by his lectures and writings, did much to further the teaching of Pasteur...". (Bulloch "History of bacteriology" p. 400) ---- - DSB XIII pp. 521/524 - cf. Garrison N° 2495‎
