Louis Pasteur

Chemists and biologists France, Louis Pasteur, is generally considered to be topnotch topnotch bin in the history of medicine. Pasteur had served many important contributions to the interests of the mind sciences. But the most striking about him is his opinion about the theory and development of bacillus disease prevention through the injection technique.

Pasteur was born in the town of Dole in 1822, the eastern part of France. As a student in Paris he was to deepen knowledge. His genius was not yet visible when one student even considers Pasteur Grand Masters "moderate" course in chemistry. Only after he earned a Doctorate in the year 1847, Pasteur proved wrong professor of speech. Investigations of the treaty acid (tartaric acid) on the glass raised in rank to the level of the famous chemist when he was only twenty-six years.

Then he turned his attention to the investigation of fermentation and prove that this process is exactly like the kind that occurs in other micro-organisms can memprodusir results are not desired in terms of fermentation liquor. This idea soon led other kegagasan that such micro-organisms can also produce things that are not expected and can bring a good influence on human or animal.

Pasteur was not the first person to memasalahkan theory of disease bacillus. Similar hypothesis has been developed first by Girolamo Fracastoro, Friedrich Henle and many more.However, the most prominent Pasteurlah in the germ theory of disease demonstrated by a series of experiments and demonstrations which are the main factors and scholars to convince people that his theory was right.

If the disease is caused by a bacillus, it seemed plausible that by preventing the entry of the bacillus into the human body, the disease can be avoided. Therefore Pasteur emphasized the importance of antiseptic method for the doctors, and he had a major influence on Joseph Lister who introduced antiseptics way into the field of surgery.

Harmful bacteria that can enter the human body through food and drink. Pasteur developed a technique (usually called pasteurization) to destroy micro-organisms in beverages. This technique, if practiced, can destroy the contaminated milk as a cause of infection pests.

When age approaching mid-fifties, Pasteur turned his attention again to the investigation of livestock disease bacillus, a type of serious infectious diseases that attack livestock and other animals, but not humans. Pasteur was able to show that the type of bacillus is the cause something diseases. Another important work is the development of the technique to produce patterns of livestock disease bacillus which was attenuated. By the way cattle are injected into the body, bacillus is attenuated disease can cause mild illness and did not cause fatal allowing cattle that gain immunity to face the real disease. Pasteur demonstrations in public about the effectiveness of the technique immunize animals from livestock disease bacillus caused a stir.Soon realized that the general method can be used for the prevention of assorted social ills.

Pasteur's personal discovery of the most famous is the development of human injection technique to prevent the dreaded disease rabies. Other scientists, by imitating the basic idea Pasteur, since it developed a vaccine to prevent other serious illnesses such as typhoid and poliomyelitis.

Pasteur, one who likes a lot of great work, creating inventions less important but still useful to the fragrance name. Is none other than his invention - than the meaning of the discovery of other people - who convincingly demonstrated that the micro-organisms do not grow through breeding.Pasteur also discovered anaerobiosis phenomena, such things can live micro-organisms 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 poultry diseases that attack. Pasteur's last breath near Paris in 1895.

People often make comparisons between the Pasteur by Edward Jenner, English physician who developed a vaccine for the prevention of smallpox. Although Jenner did 80 years before Pasteur, I consider the importance of Jenner's not as Pasteur, because pengebalannya system applies only to one type of disease course, while the Pasteur system can - and has been proven - effective to immunize against many diseases.

Starting from the mid-19th century, the needs of the world population live almost twice hpat increased. Added needs absurdly fast and wide coverage area is greater than what has happened in the history of mankind. As a result, modern science and the medical world we actually have served a second period of life. If the addition of this extension period may be associated with the work solely Pasteur business, I did not hesitate and waver again placed on the first level in this book is a chronological list. However, Pasteur was the fundamental contribution that did not have to question that Pasteur had a large stake in preventing the death rate at the end of this century.
