[Since Wassermann to VDRL in the ancient Bacteriological Institute of Chile]

Abstract:

The author remembers, sometimes in a very personal and colloquial way, the successive adoption by the ancient Bacteriological Institute of Chile of different nontreponemal tests for the serological diagnosis of syphilis: Wassermann, Kahn and VDRL. The outstanding figures of some agents of those changes, like Rudolf Kraus, Eduardo Dussert and Reuben Kahn, are recreated in the words of first hand eyewitness.
