Japanese: ボルデ - ぼるで(英語表記)Jules Jean Baptiste Vincent Bordet
Bordet (English spelling) Jules Jean Baptiste Vincent Bordet

Belgian bacteriologist. Graduated from the University of Brussels. In 1894 he entered the Institut Pasteur in Paris, where he studied under Metchnikoff. He served as director of the Institut Pasteur in Brussels (1901) and professor at the University of Brussels (1907). He discovered the immunological hemolysis phenomenon, in which the serum of a guinea pig injected with rabbit blood lyses the rabbit's red blood cells, and proved that this occurs through the cooperation of two substances, the immune system in the guinea pig serum and a normal serum component (complement), and later devised the complement fixation reaction. In 1906 he discovered the pertussis bacterium in collaboration with Octave Gengou (1875-1957), and continued to research bacteriophages until his later years. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1919 for his "discoveries concerning immunity."

ベルギーの細菌学者。ブリュッセル大学卒業。1894年パリのパスツール研究所に入りメチニコフに師事。ブリュッセルのパスツール研究所長(1901)、ブリュッセル大学教授(1907)などを歴任。ウサギの血液を注射したモルモットの血清がウサギの赤血球を溶血する免疫学的溶血現象を発見、これがモルモット血清中の免疫体と正常血清成分(補体)との2物質の協同によっておこることを証明、その後、補体結合反応を考案した。1906年にはジャングーOctave Gengou(1875―1957)と共同で百日咳(ぜき)菌を発見、晩年までバクテリオファージの研究を続けた。「免疫に関する発見」により、1919年のノーベル医学生理学賞を受賞した。
