Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur is an excellent guy who has done things that led to the advancement of the life we honor today. Before Pasteur became that excellent person Louis went through a little bit of tragedies. A tragedy is when a event cause great suffering destruction, and distress,such as a serious accident,crime or natural catastrophe. These tragedies led to his triumphs which made him an excellent person. Triumphs are great victories or achievements. Pasteur did have tragedies but they were not that…

Thesis: After Joseph Lister read an article of Louis Pasteur about germ theory, he remembered that in Carlisle, England, people got rid of trash smell by using a spray. He discovered that the spray used killed germs, which caused smell. "Robert Koch was the first scientist to devise a series of tests used to assess the germ theory of disease." At about 1870, the world accepted their "changing" discovery and soon the Germ Theory began. Thus the discoveries of these men revolutionized and…

Louis Pasteur was a French microbiologist and chemist who pioneered a legendary scientific path of discovery. Pasteur was among the first to develop a method for creating a bacteria-based vaccine. His studies of bacteria still have an effect upon many scientific fields today. Although Pasteur has historical discoveries related to food borne bacteria, I will largely focus upon his discovery of the Anthrax vaccine. Pasteur’s discovery of the Anthrax vaccine took place…

communities and outbreaks of smallpox that affected the area. Louis Pasteur, a scientist, discovered his first vaccine in 1879, with a disease called chicken cholera. He accidentally exposed chickens to a form of a culture and he observed and demonstrated that they became resistant to the actual virus. Pasteur went on to use this theory to develop causes and vaccinations for diseases such as TB, smallpox, cholera and anthrax. Pasteur next discovered the rabies vaccine in 1885. Then,…

the work of many different physicians and would eventually change and improve the medical and public health systems. The Germ theory of disease came about around the mid 1800’s. The work of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch would eventually help the germ theory gain wide acceptance in the medical field. But Pasteur and Koch were influenced by men like Ignaz Semmelveis, Edward Jenner, O.W. Holmes, and John Snow. These physicians helped change the medical field. Edward Jenner was a doctor from…

Anthrax is thought to be an ancient illness. While there is no way to be completely sure, as it was not referred to as anthrax at the time, many scholars date anthrax all the way back to 700 BC during the periods of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia (CDC, 2016). According to the CDC, “Many scholars think that in Moses’ time, during the 10 plagues of Egypt, anthrax may have caused what was known as the fifth plague, described as a sickness affecting horses, cattle, sheep, camels and oxen” (CDC, 2016)…

microorganism from outside was causing the spoilage of beverage. He concluded that all diseases are caused by preexisting microorganism. Not only he discovered the cause of illnesses, but he also came up with the idea about how to prevent them. To do so, Louis Pasteur has invented a vaccine which is made up of weaken disease. This process has been saving many people’s life especially in hospitals. He taught medical staff how to sterile the…

Louis Pasteur had multiple discoveries that affect each one of us today. We have a choice to have our children immunized, we have sterile surgical areas, and we have the process of pasteurization. My family has been blessed by all of these discoveries. My husband works in the OR doing neurophysiological monitoring of patients. He is able to see the sterile environment of the OR first hand. What was the motivation that led to the discovery? Louis Pasteur wanted to understand why some…

Pasteur created the process of pasteurization to eradicate the microscopic organisms causing disease and sickness using heat. One of the methods for utilizing pasteurization is a solar puddle, which cleans larger amounts of water at a time than solar cookers…

things could come from non-living things. Due to Redi’s findings, we now know that is not true. Pasteur was also a believer of biogenesis like Francesco Redi. After the discovery of unicellular organisms, a controversy about spontaneous generation sparked once more. Using his previous studies and experimentation on fermentation, Pasteur set out to prove biogenesis through his experiment. In Louis…
