Is this the historical 'cancer germ'?

Milton Wainwright1, Abdullah Al Talih.   

Abstract

A highly pleomorphic bacterium, isolated from a canine mammary tumour was found to share many characteristics with recently described cancer-related bacteria and with the Glover organism, a historically important 'cancer germ'. We suggest that both the Glover organism, and possibly other cancer-related bacteria, are likely to be a strain of the highly pleomorphic bacterium, Bacillus licheniformis.
