…This phenomenon is now called Koch's phenomenon, because the body's reaction differs between primary infection and reinfection, with reinfection showing a stronger resistance. In 1902, while studying sea anemone toxins, Charles R. Richet (1850-1935) and Paul Portier (1866-1962) of France discovered that dogs could be injected with a small amount of toxin at first without dying, but that the dogs became so sensitive to the toxin that even a very small amount of toxin injected thereafter would cause severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing, diarrhea, and bloody stool, and they would die. They called this anaphylaxis (ana means opposite, no, and phylaxis means defense or protection, and is a Latin word referring to a state of no defense). … *Some of the terminology that mentions "Portier, P." is listed below.
