Abstract
The paper presents basic biographical data on the Austrian pioneer of experimental medicine Salomon Stricker (1834-1898), and emphasizes the link of his experimental work to important research projects of this time period. His influence on Carl Heitzmann and Carl Koller was pointed out. The work of both was connected directly with Sticker’s experimental designs, far less known in published literature. Demonstrating ad oculos the world of capillaries, diapedesis of blood cells, cell division in vivo by Stricker, paved the way for investigations in immunology and allergology.
