Excerpt from Micro-Organisms and Disease: An Introduction to the Study of Specific Micro-Organisms
To mention two series only it has been shown that there occur in some individuals a variety of localised inflam matory and suppurative foci, which are intimately associated not necessarily with pus - forming cocci - the microbes of typi cal suppuration - but with one or the other kind of microbes - e.g. Proteus vulgaris, bacillus coli, pneumococcus, and other microbes. These organisms have in these particular cases only caused disease under healthy conditions their presence in the various tissues is insufficient to do so. Or, to take another series of disorders: fatal summer diarrhoeas in children and in adults. Bacillus coli or proteus vulgaris are under ordinary normal conditions found in the intestine, in the large intestine and in the lower ileum, as also in many other conditions associated with putrid proteid decomposition. Under certain abnormal conditions of the intestine caused, in the first instance, by fermentative changes, such as the lactic or acetic fermentation or others, the intestinal tract, specially the small intestine, is rendered highly favourable for the multiplication of those microbes, so that it practically contains a pure culture of them. Bacillus coli and proteus vulgaris, being both endowed with the power of intensive proteid decomposition, would under these favourable conditions of multiplication produce copiously poisonous alkaloids, ptomaines or allied toxins, which, absorbed into the circulation, might produce fatal results.
