| drinking an entire bottle bacteria |
Posted by tintin on May, 16. :: 1 Comment
When the nineteenth-century German bacteriologist Robert Koch identified a particular bacterium as responsible for cholera, Max von Pettenkoffer, a physician, expressed his skepticism by voluntarily drinking an entire bottle of the allegedly responsible bacteria. Although von Pettenkoffer took his failure to come down with the disease as a refutation of Koch's hypothesis that cholera was caused by bacteria, Koch argued that von Pettenkoffer had been protected by his own stomach acid. The acid secreted by the stomach, Koch explained, kills most ingested bacteria.
Although von Pettenkoffer took his failure to come down with the disease ??? his failure means ?
I dont understand this line.
can anybody simplify it ?
