Louis Pasteur, The Great Scientist of the World

Chemists and biologists from France, Louis Pasteur, is generally considered to bin Topnotch first category in the history of medicine. Pasteur had served many important contributions to the interests of science of the mind. But the most striking thing about him is his opinion on the theory and development of disease prevention through bacillus injection technique.
Pasteur was born in Dole in 1822, the eastern part of France. As a student in Paris, was to deepen knowledge. His genius was not yet visible when a student even considers Pasteur Grandmasters "moderate" chemistry course. Only after he obtained a doctorate in 1847, Pasteur showed the wrong professor of speech. Investigations treaty acid (tartaric acid) on the glass raised in rank to the level of the famous chemist when he was only twenty-six.
Then he turned his attention to research of fermentation and show that this process is exactly like the type that occurs in other microorganisms can memprodusir undesirable results in terms of fermentation liquor. This idea soon led to such kegagasan other microorganisms can also produce things that are not expected and could make a good influence on human or animal.
Pasteur was not the first person memasalahkan bacillus theory of disease. Similar hypothesis was first developed by Girolamo Fracastoro, Friedrich Henle and others. However, the most prominent Pasteurlah germ theory of disease demonstrated by a series of experiments and demonstrations, which are the main factors and specialists to convince people that his theory was correct.
If the disease is caused by a bacillus, it seems plausible that by preventing the entry of the bacillus in the human body, the disease can be avoided. Therefore, Pasteur emphasized the importance of antiseptic method for physicians, and had a great influence on Joseph Lister introduced antiseptic that way in the field of surgery.
Harmful bacteria can enter the human body through food and drink. Pasteur developed a technique (usually called pasteurization) to kill microorganisms in beverages. This technique, if practiced, can destroy tainted milk as the cause of the plagues of the infection.
As we approach the age of fifty, Pasteur turned his attention back to the investigation of the bacillus of cattle disease, a type of serious infectious diseases that attack livestock and other animals but not humans. Pasteur was able to demonstrate that the type of bacillus disease is the cause of something. Another important work is the development of the technique to produce patterns of bacillus disease in cattle which was attenuated. By the way cattle are injected into the body, the bacillus is attenuated disease can cause mild illness and no cause of death of livestock that allows for immunity to face the real disease. Pasteur public demonstrations on the effectiveness of the technique of immunizing animals livestock disease bacillus caused a stir. He soon realized that the general method can be used for the prevention of a variety of social ills.
Pasteur's personal discovery of the most famous is the development of human injection technique to prevent rabies terrible disease. Other scientists, mimicking the basic idea of Pasteur, and who developed a vaccine to prevent other diseases such as typhoid and polio.
Pasteur, one who loves the great work, the creation of inventions of minor but useful for the name of the phenomena fragancia.Pasteur also discovered anaerobiosis, these things can live microorganisms in the absence of air or oxygen. Pasteur's work on silkworm diseases brought high commercial value. Another discovery is the development of vaccines to prevent cholera outbreak in poultry and diseases that attack poultry. The last breath of Pasteur, near Paris in 1895.
People often make comparisons between Pasteur, Edward Jenner, English physician who developed a vaccine for the prevention of smallpox. Although Jenner did 80 years before Pasteur, I think the importance of Jenner and Pasteur not because the system pengebalannya only applies to a type of disease course, while the system can Pasteur - and has proven - effective in immunizing against many diseases.by Michael H. Hart,One hundred most influential figures in the history.
