bacillusn.

Brit.

/bəˈsɪləs/, U.S.

/bəˈsɪləs/

Forms: Plural bacilli.

Etymology: late Latin (in Isidore), ‘little rod,’ diminutive of baculus, variant of baculum rod, stick.

Natural History.

A genus of Schizomycetæ, microscopic vegetable organisms of the lowest grade among what were once called Infusoria. Separated from Bacterium, with which it agrees in its rod-like form, and characterized by its larger size and mode of reproduction. First described by Müller a1850; subsequently brought into note by the discovery of some of the species in the diseased tissues in Anthrax, and in Phthisis and other tubercular diseases. Frequently in figurative use.
