He was a French chemist and microbiologist.He is known for his discoveries of principles of vaccination, microbial fermentation, and pasteurization.He crushed the doctrine of spontaneous generation.

He reduced the mortality from puerperal fever.He created first vaccines for rabies and anthrax.His medical discoveries provided direct support for the germ theory of disease.He is best known for his invention of the technique of treating milk & wine by gentle heating to stop bacterial contamination, a process now called pasteurization.

Pasteur also made significant discoveries in chemistry, most notably on the molecular basis for the asymmetry of certain crystals and racemization.He is known as the ‘Father of modern microbiology’.

2. Robert KochBorn : 11 December, 1843Died : 27 May, 1910Country: GermanyKnown for : Discovery of
bacteriologyKoch’spostulates of germ theory,
Isolation of anthrax, tuberculosis,
and cholera

He was a German physician and pioneering microbiologist.
He is best known for giving four postulates, now called Koch’s postulates.

He discovered the causative agent of anthrax – Bacillus anthracis.
Koch determined the causative agent of cholera, isolating Vibrio cholerae.
He reported the causative agent of tuberculosis – Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
