Gustav Karl Theodor Friedrich Baermann

Gustav Karl Theodor Friedrich Baermann (7 February 1877[1]-1950), was a medical doctor and researcher into public health in the early 20th century.

Baermann married his first wife, Eva Helene Emilie Erika Weinbach on 31 December 1904 in Breslau, former Prussia, now Poland.

While they were in Java in 1905, Fritz Schaudinnn (1871-1906) and Erich Hoffmann (1868-1959) in Berlin discovered the Spirochaeta pallida, the pathogen of syphilis.

In this, in addition to continuing the experiments with primates and monkeys, attempts were made to transmit syphilis to other mammals and chickens.

While in Indonesia (former Dutch East Indies) he published a number of works on public health[10] and parasitic disease, and he was active in trying to improve medical facilities in Deli-Medan.

Liquor from the bottom of the apparatus is removed periodically by opening the clip into a small beaker and drops from this examined under the microscope.

The method has been evaluated by Todd et al. (1970)[12] and Dinaburg (1942)[13] Baermann wrote extensively in his early career on parasitology and epidemiology exclusively in German, and his works are available in libraries worldwide, but mostly in Germany.

As well as being extensively used for parasitology in the faeces of mammals including humans,[15] the technique has also been adapted for examination of leaf litter,[16] and marine sediment, soils.
