Koch’s postulates

the microbe must be found in the body in all cases of the disease

it must be isolated from a case and grown in a series of pure culture in vitro

it reproduce the disease on the inoculation of a late pure culture into a susceptible animal

the microbe must be isolated again into pure culture from such experimentally caused infection.
