1. No living things arise by spontaneous generation,
2. microbes are everywhere - even in the air and dust,
3. and the growth of microbes causes dead plant & animal tissue to decompose & food to spoil (this led him to develop technique of pasteurization (1864) - developed to keep wine
from spoiling).
3 things Pastuer experiments proved
Koch's 4 Postules
1. The causative agent must be present in every individual with the disease.
2. The causative agent must be isolated & grown in pure culture; with Frau Hesse's help, he
developed the
agar plate method (he tried potatoes, solidified gelatin, and then agar).
3. The pure culture must cause the disease when inoculated into an experimental animal.
4. The causative agent must be reisolated from the experimental animal & reidentified in pure
culture.
