 Theodor Escherich (www.whonamedit.com)
Theodor Escherich was a pioneer paediatrician who devoted his efforts to improving child care, particularly infant hygiene and nutrition.
Escherich was soon convinced that bacteriology could solve or illuminate many paediatric problems, and at Munich the circumstances were favourable for this approach.

SEMP Biot #109: Who Is Dr. Theodor Escherich?
In 1884, German pediatrician Dr. Theodor Escherich examined human excrement under his microscope and identified Escherichia coli, a bacterium that is always present in the feces of healthy humans.
This discovery led to the idea of using the amount of E. coli in waterways to signal that raw sewage, possibly containing feces from people sick with cholera, typhoid, and other infectious diarrheal diseases, had entered the clean water supply.
