	Ferdinand Cohn Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		Considered to be the father of modern bacteriology, Ferdinand Cohn (1828-1898) began his studies as a botanist and ultimately made discoveries which led to the creation of a new field of study.
		Cohn was the director of the institute from the time it opened in 1869 until his death.
		Cohn believed that these bodies represented a stage in the life cycle of the bacilli and suggested that they were "real spores, from which new Bacilli may develop." Since it was known that spores survived high temperature, he concluded that these must also be spores that survived the boiling and then germinated to form bacteria.

	Ferdinand Julius Cohn - LoveToKnow 1911
		FERDINAND JULIUS COHN (1828-1898), German botanist, was born on the 24th of January 1828 at Breslau.
		When it is remembered that Cohn brought out and helped R. Koch in publishing his celebrated paper on Anthrax (1876), the first clearly worked out case of a bacterial disease, the significance of his influence on bacteriology becomes apparent.
		Cohn had also clear perceptions of the important bearings of Mycology and Bacteriology in infective diseases, as shown by his studies in insect-killing fungi, microscopic analysis of water, andc.

		Ferdinand's father, Isaak Cohn, was known for his high intelligence, a strong interest in various cultural areas, and liberal views on politics.
		Cohn proposed that the cuticula is instead a separate layer upon the epidermis.
		In 1875 Cohn began and edited a comprehensive study of the flora of cryptogamae (lower plants, ferns, mosses, algae, characeae, and fungi) in Silesia, the results of which were subsequently compiled into three volumes, published in 1878, 1889, and 1908.

	Ferdinand Cohn - Sterling Memorial Library - Cycle of Life Exhibit
		In his popular essay the bacteriologist, Ferdinand Cohn (1828-1898) described the arrangement of nature as a “cycle of life” in which, “the body in which life has been extinguished succumbs to dissolution, in order that its material may become again serviceable to new life.
		If the amount of material which can be moulded into living beings is limited on the earth, the same particles of material must ever be converted from dead into living bodies in an eternal circle; if the wandering of the soul be a myth, the wandering of matter is a scientific fact.

		When one of Ferdinand Cohn's students, Joseph Schroeter found that bacteria would grow on potatoes, egg whites, meat and bread and discovered that these bacteria colonies could form colonies almost exactly the same as the original.

		The results of this painstaking work were demonstrated by Koch to Ferdinand Cohn, Professor of Botany at the University of Breslau, who called a meeting of his colleagues to witness this demonstration, among whom was Professor Cohnheim, Professor of Pathological Anatomy.
		Both Cohn and Cohnheim were deeply impressed by Koch's work and when Cohn, in 1876, published Koch's work in the botanical journal of which he was the editor, Koch immediately became famous.
		He continued, nevertheless, to work at Wollstein for a further four years and during this period he improved his methods of fixing, staining and photographing bacteria and did further important work on the study of diseases caused by bacterial infections of wounds, publishing his results in 1878.

		This finding explained the recurrence of the disease in pastures long unused for grazing, for the dormant spores could, under the right conditions, develop into the rod-shaped bacilli that cause anthrax.
		The anthrax life cycle, which Koch had discovered, was announced and illustrated at Breslau in 1876, on the invitation of Ferdinand Cohn, an eminent botanist.
		One of Cohn's pupils, Joseph Schroeter, found that chromogenic (colour-forming) bacteria would grow on such solid substrates as potato, coagulated egg white, meat, and bread and that these colonies were capable of forming new colonies of the same colour, consisting of organisms of the same type.

		Ferdinand Cohn (1828-1898), a German botanist, was the first person to describe the entire life cycle of endospore-forming Bacillus.

		Endospores are so named because they are formed intracellularly, although they are eventually released from this mother cell or sporangium as free spores.

		The term bacteria was devised in the 19th century by the German botanist Ferdinand Cohn (1828-98) who based it on the Greek bakterion meaning a small rod or staff.
		In 1853, Cohn categorised bacteria as one of three types of microorganisms -- bacteria (short rods), bacilli (longer rods), and spirilla (spiral forms).
		The term bacteria was preceded in the 17th century by the microscopic animalcules described by Antony van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723).
