KOCH’S POSTULATES AND RIVERS’ POSTULATES
In 1890, the German physician and bacteriologist Robert Koch set out criteria for determining whether a given
bacterium is the cause of a given disease. Koch’s postulates are as follows:
1. The bacteria must be present in every case of the disease.
2. The bacteria must be isolated from the host with the disease and grown in pure culture.
3. The specific disease must be reproduced when a pure culture of the bacteria is inoculated into a healthy
susceptible host.
4. The bacteria must be recoverable from the experimentally infected host.
In reality, scientists have failed to fulfill all of the postulates for any disease. In fact, Koch had to abandon the first
postulate when he discovered asymptomatic carriers of cholera and, later, of typhoid fever.
Koch’s postulates are for bacteria, not for viruses. In 1937, Thomas Rivers modified Koch’s postulates in order to
determine the infectious nature of viruses. Rivers’ postulates are as follows:
1. The virus can be isolated from diseased hosts.
2. The virus can be cultivated in host cells.
3. Proof of filterability—the virus can be filtered from a medium that also contains bacteria.
4. The filtered virus can produce a comparable disease when the cultivated virus is used to infect experimental
animals.
5. The virus can be re-isolated from the infected experimental animal.
6. A specific immune response to the virus can be detected.
As with bacteria, scientists have never proved Rivers’ postulates for any so-called viral disease.
