Demonstrated the presence of heat resistant forms of some microbes, Cohn determined these forms to be heat-resistant bacterial endospores

Question 22

Pasteur (and Koch)

Answer 22

Germ Theory of Disease. Microbial diseases are not caused by sin, bad character, or poverty. Microbes causing fermentation and spoilage. Disproved spontaneous generation or microorganisms, developed pasteurization, demonstrate what is now germ theory of disease. Father of Micro. Developed rabies and anthrax vaccines
