Proteus OX19 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Proteus OX19
''Proteus'' OX19 is a strain of the ''Proteus vulgaris'' bacterium. ==History== In 1915, Arthur Felix and Edward Weil discovered that ''Proteus'' OX19 reacted to the same human immune antibodies as typhus, so developed the Weil-Felix test for typhus and other rickettsial diseases. Drs. Eugeniusz Lazowski and Stanisław Matulewicz worked with ''Proteus'' OX19 during World War II in the small town of Rozwadów in Poland to keep Nazi Germany from taking over the town. The doctors began inoculating villagers with dead ''Proteus'', rendering false positives in tests for typhus. When the blood samples of the townspeople were sent to the German authorities for testing, authorities were convinced a typhus epidemic was burning through Rozwadów. The two Polish doctors used ''Proteus'' OX19 to save thousands of Poles and Jews.
