The widespread acceptance of the germ theory of disease in the second half of the 19th century sparked a revolutionary change in the understanding of the vital role that microbes play in infectious diseases. Specific bacterial, fungal, and viral pathogens were identified as the causative agents of many serious diseases, and a race immediately began to find effective means to attack these implicated microbes. Vaccines were deployed to prevent infectious disease by educating the host’s immune system with the attenuated or killed microbe of concern. However, they were not an effective remedy against acute infections. Chemical weaponry against bacterial diseases that could rapidly act alone or in concert with the host immune system to clear preexisting infections was discovered just before the turn of the 20th century. The German physician Paul Ehrlich investigated medicinal dyes that would specifically bind to and destroy pathogenic parasites and bacteria, but not harm the host. As the founder of modern chemotherapy, he sought after a “magic bullet” that could target the causative spirochete in syphilis, a devastating, widespread, and incurable disease, which was known since the Renaissance. In 1910, Ehrlich discovered the arsenic-containing chemical dye he eventually named Salvarsan. It was the first chemical compound shown to cure syphilis (Schwartz, Thoburn, Winau). Learn more about Paul Ehrlich in this short documentary.
