Auguste Chaillou
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Auguste Chaillou (August 21, 1866 - April 23, 1915) was a French biologist and physician who was born in Parennes in the department of Sarthe. He worked at the Hôpital des Enfants-Malades, and for most of his career was associated with the Pasteur Institute in Paris.
Chaillou is best-known for his development of the anti-diphtheria serum with Emile Roux and Louis Martin at the Pasteur Institute. The three men presented their findings at the Tenth International Congress of Hygiene in Budapest (1894). From 1895 until 1914 he was chief of anti-rabies services at the Pasteur Institute. As a medical officer during World War I he was killed on the battlefield of Vauquois.
