Orfila, known for his work on poisons, and Parent Duchalet his work on publich health co-authored this report on the effect of continuous storage of rotting crops (notably potatoes). There is a considerable information on the industrial workings and little known cases and disputes involving public health issues. Given medical theory at the time this study was of considerable importance in assessing the threat of major epidemics like yellow fever or cholera that seemed to arise from the rotting miasma accompanying such storage. A good public health case study by two prominent physicians. See G - M for the author's listings.
