As a significant port in modern China with a big population of foreigners and natives,Shanghai Port faced a higher complexity in quarantine issues compared to other regions.Different powers in Shanghai had gradually institutionalized quarantine establishments through collaborative efforts since 1894.A probe into the process of establishment and initial evolution clearly shows that Shanghai Cus-toms,Shanghai Municipal Committee and Shanghai Taotai,interpreted the nature and functions of San-itary stations differently based on their unique knowledge frameworks.At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries,Shanghai's port quarantine institution completed the transition from simple shelters to sys-tematic stations.This process involved power struggles,competition for medical knowledge,environ-mental changes,and many other factors.The period from 1894 to 1904 represents the stage of transfor-mation for Shanghai's port quarantine,laying the foundation for its advanced system.
