His numerous work made him one of the greatest international medical disseminators of his time. In 1877 he founded the magazine La Crónica Médica. He published more than two hundred articles, in which apart from clinical cases with histopathological analysis, he developed the study of the pathophysiology of menstruation and puerperal sepsis, whose pathology and prevention can be analyzed from the assumptions of medical microbiology.[5] His instruments for work are exhibited in the Historic-Medical Museum of the University of Valencia, along with other relevant doctors such as Manuel Candela and Francisco Bonilla Mart.
