pleomorphism

多型現象 microorganism can evolve into various growth form

Louis Pasteur

microbiologist

monomorphism

單型性 microorganism is static and unchangeable

Bechamp

Microzymas – microbes in the blood which can change shape when a person is diseased

Pasteur

disease is sole caused by

microbes or bacteria

from the outside: Germ theory

Le germ n’est rien, c’est Le germ n’est rien, c’est le terrain qui est tout.le terrain qui est tout.

Bernard is correct, the Bernard is correct, the microbe is nothing: microbe is nothing: the terrain is everything.the terrain is everything.
