Baumgarten-Tangl Law

The Baumgarten-Tangl law is a rule about tuberculosis: it states that the location where the bacteria intruded is the one where the inflammation can be observed first.

The law was first published in 1890 by Franz Tangl and verified in 1905 by Paul Clemens von Baumgarten.

Famous quotes containing the word law:

    We accept and welcome ... as conditions to which we must accommodate ourselves, great inequality of environment; the concentration of business, industrial and commercial, in the hands of a few; and the law of competition between these, as being not only beneficial, but essential for the future progress of the race.
    Andrew Carnegie (1835–1919)
