[1] «Nous voyons apparaître en 1835 une spécialité intéressante avec Joseph Bourgogne: "Le premier en Europe il créa l'industrie des préparations d'histoire naturelle régulièrement et scientifiquement établies à l'usage des micrographes"» {Payen, [1986], vol. 36, p. 115}. Serpieri purchased the slides in Paris from Secretan, who probably obtained them from Bourgogne.

I preparati furono acquistati dal Serpieri a Parigi dal Secretan. Probabilmente quest'ultimo si riforniva dal Bourgogne.
