Peruvian Fever Germ Is Discovered

The Rockefeller Institute is responsi-
bic for the isolation of another germ.
This time 1t is the microbe that causes
oroya fever, curious, highly fatal
disease that occurs only in restricted
localities of the Andes at attitudes
above 5000 feet.
In forthcoming issue Of Science,
DR.. Hideye Noguchi and DR.. T. S. Bat
tistini give a preliminary report on
their work on this organism. which
they have succeeded in growing for
the first time in artificial cultures. 1t
is known as Bartonella bacilliformis
and has been recognized for some time
as the cause of Peruvian fever. but no
one has ever before been able to grow
It In the laboratory or to inoculate ami
mails with it. DR.. Noguchi and DIR.

of the disease in monkeys and have re.
