| back 1 - Published research regarding Syphillis in 1530.
- Published findings regarding epidemic diseases.
- Tiny,
unseen organisms were spread by several means including contact
between infected hosts etc, indirect contact, carried on
clothing/air.
|
| back 2 - Designed compound microscope
- Published
"Micrografia", used the term cell to describe small,
honeycomb spaces.
- His discovery was the beginning of cell
theory.
|
| back 3 - 1st to observe and record bacteria : 1673
- Used single
lens microscope and studied rainwater, saliva, and semen -- called
these findings "animalcules"
- Reported to Royal
Society of London
|
| back 4 - Attempted to disprove abiogenesis (spontaneous generation)
- Placed 3 pieces of meat, some covered and some not covered, not
successful.
|
| back 5 - performed experiments with meat broths that became infested
with microbes.
|
| back 6 - Showed that heat/boiling was able to kill or prevent microbial
growth.
|
| back 7 - Developed 1st vaccination against smallpox.
- Inoculated
8yr old boy with fluid from blisters of a milkmaid with cowpox.
|
| back 8 - Witness high fatality rates from puerperal fever.
- Correlated infection rate with the frequency of handwashing with
chlorinated lime between treatment of patients. Result was dramatic
reduction.
|
| back 9 - Dismantled spontaneous generation
- Conducted controlled
experiment by using short necked flasks and swan necks.
- No
microbial growth was observed in swan neck.
|
| back 10 - Established principle of aseptic technique.
- Spraying
wounds, incisions, dressings, and used phenol as hand scrub.
- Wearing gloves, changing gowns, and cleaning/disinfecting inst
before next case.
|
| back 11 - Discovered Bacillus Anthracis, from cattle that died of
anthrax.
- Announced that cause of TB was rod shaped bacteria,
called mycobacterium tuberculosis
- Pure culture
technique
|
| back 12 - Chemotherapy
- Provided first "magic bullet"
Salavarsan effective against Syphillis

sterilize our instruments
