Walther Kruse
Walther Kruse (September 8, 1864 - 1943) was a German bacteriologist who was a native of Berlin. In 1888 he received his doctorate from Berlin, where he was a student of Rudolf Virchow (1821-1902). From 1889 until 1892 he worked as a bacteriologist in Naples, and in 1892 travelled to Egypt to perform research on dysentery. In 1893 he became an assistant to hygienist Carl Flügge (1847-1923) in Breslau, and in 1898 became an associate professor at the University of Bonn. Later he served as a full professor in Königsberg (1900), Bonn (1911) and Leipzig (1913). Walther Kruse is remembered for his work in parasitology and his research of intestinal bacteria infections. He performed extensive studies of ''Shigella dysenteriae'' during an epidemic of dysentery in the Ruhr area of Germany. This organism is sometimes referred to as the "Shiga-Kruse bacillus", and its associated disease as "Shiga-Kruse dysentery". These eponyms are shared with Japanese bacteriologist Kiyoshi ...

Bacteriologist
A bacteriologist is a microbiologist, or similarly trained professional, in bacteriology -- a subdivision of microbiology that studies bacteria, typically Pathogenic bacteria, pathogenic ones. Bacteriologists are interested in studying and learning about bacteria, as well as using their skills in clinical settings. This includes investigating properties of bacteria such as Morphology (biology), morphology, ecology, genetics and biochemistry, phylogenetics, genomics and many other areas related to bacteria like Medical diagnosis, disease diagnostic testing. Alongside human and animal health care, healthcare providers, they may carry out various functions as Biomedical scientist, medical scientists, veterinary scientists, or Medical laboratory scientist, diagnostic technicians in locations like clinics, Blood bank, blood banks, hospitals, laboratories and Veterinary medicine, animal hospitals. Bacteriologists working in public health or biomedical research help develop vaccines for pu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
