Nicolaier was the one who discovered the anaerobic bacillus Clostridium Tetani in 1885. Almost simultaneously, in 1889, Kitasato, obtained the bacillus of tetanus in pure culture.

Emil von Behring (March 15, 1854 - 1917) was the one, anyway, who provided the tetanus antitoxin. One of the major pharmaceuticals companies is named after his name.
