Tuberculosis is a common and deadly infectious disease most commonly attacking the lungs but can also affect the central nervous, lymphatic, circulatory, genitourinary systems; bones, joints and skin.
In the past, tuberculosis was called consumption, as it seemed to consume people from within, with a bloody cough, fever, pallor, and long relentless wasting.
Over one-third of the world's population has been exposed to the TB bacterium, and new infections occur at a rate of one per second.In addition, a rising number of people in the developed world are contracting tuberculosis because their immune systems are compromised by immunosuppressive drugs, substance abuse, or HIV/AIDS.
Dr. Robert Koch, considered one of the founders of microbiology for isolating the Bacillus anthracis (1877), the tuberculosis bacillus (1882) and the cholera vibrio (1883), and for his development of criteria designed to establish a causal relationship between a microbe and a disease, known as Koch's postulates:
1. The microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but not in healthy organisms.
2. The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture.
3. The cultured microorganism should cause disease when introduced into a healthy organism.
4. The microorganism must be reisolated from the inoculated, diseased experimental host and identified as being identical to the original specific causative agent.
