CONTRIBUTIONS OF LOUIS PASTEUR.LIFE OF MICROGUYS VIDEO.

Hello everyone, welcome to an interesting episode of life of micro guys. In this episode we are going to discuss on contributions of Louis Pasteur in the field of microbiology. Louis Pasteur is a French biologist, microbiologist and chemist who made some serious contributions in the field of microbiology. He was the first scientist to create vaccines for four cholera, anthrax and rabies. Research works by Louis Pasteur, fermentation and pasteurization. In 1854 he started his studies on fermentation. He found that each type of fermentation is carried out by living microorganisms. However, before his discovery people had a misconception about fermentation that it was generated by a series of chemical reactions in which enzymes are produced. He used his research in fermentation to fight against disease of wine in 1865. He realized that these were caused by unbounded microorganisms that could be destroyed by heating wine to a temperature between 60 degree Celsius and 100 degree Celsius. This theory was then used in all sorts of perishable items including milk. Now we are going to the second contribution of Louis Pasteur that is the gem theory. With his theory of fermentation forward, Pasteur helped the survival of silk industry in 1865. He read the activity of microorganisms and called it as gem theory. Pasteur proved that microbes were continuously attacking healthy silkworm eggs causing an unknown disease and that disease could be eliminated if the microbes were eliminated. He developed a vaccine against these microorganisms and hence became the weapon for the survival of silkworm industry. Fold Cholera and Andras Working with microbes, Louis Pasteur found a way to weaken the action of microbes and he eventually discovered a solution to Andras. Andras-Basile vaccines which were usually to protect sheep, cow, goat and other animals. Rabies The final discovery of Louis Pasteur is the development of vaccine for rabies which was beneficial to both humans and animals. On July 6, 1885, Pasteur treated a first human rabies patient, Joseph Mister, a nine-year-old who was continuously beaten by a rapid animal at the Institute of Pasteur which was officially opened in 1888 as a premier institution of biomedical research and is still excelling in the field of research. Thank you.
