Last days
Louis PASTEUR (1822 - 1895), French chemist and biologist.
Autograph letter signed to veterinarian Achille Maucuer. Paris, May 21, 1881; 1 page in-8 °. Miter marks on the edge.
Pasteur, who had started the study of viral diseases, is embarking on new research on pig mullet at the urging of Bollène's veterinarian Achille Maucuer:
"You were kind enough to inform me in response to a telegram that I had the honor to send you in April, that you did not yet have red mullet that the evil was only appearing more. late in the year.
Allow me to renew to you the desire which I have to be put in possession of a young pig reached of this infection, or to have the precise knowledge that the disease is, here or there, in Vaucluse. I
am counting on your kindness to give me this information as soon as you can. L. Pasteur. I'll send someone [Dr. Roux] to report to you, a word pig from a living pig blood, or debris from a dead pig.
"
Pig vaccination is a link in the chain of Pasteur's prestigious discoveries. After veterinary studies in Lyon, Achille Maucuer set up a small laboratory in Bollène in the Vaucluse. While Pasteur was
working on "the difficult problem of the etiology of contagious, infectious and virulent diseases" (address by Pasteur of February 9, 1877 to the Minister of Public Education) which led him to study
anthrax and septicemia, Maucuer, who knows the work of Pasteur, the alert on the devastation caused by the red mullet in the pork in Vaucluse. But Pasteur leads several battles, he starts a study on
chicken cholera, on August 8 at the London Congress, he presents the masterful study on his method of transforming deadly viruses into vaccines. However, he wanted to tackle pork mullet while
simultaneously carrying out his research on rabies prophylaxis. In May 1881, Pasteur was worried about whether there was still disease in Vaucluse, as our letter to Maucuer relates. Indeed, it is a
disease that seems to reveal itself at this time of the year. In December 1882 he estimated that a vaccine would be found next spring. The first vaccinations began with caution in May 1883. On
September 4 of the same year Achille Maucuer rejoiced by writing to Pasteur: "The happy effects of vaccination are becoming more and more evident every day (...)"
