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:
“The law is a sort of hocus-pocus science, that smiles in yer face while it picks yer pocket: and the glorious uncertainty of it is of more use to the professors than the justice of it.”
—Charles Macklin (1690–1797)
