	Louis Pasteur
		Louis Pasteur was born on December 27, 1822 in Dole, in the region of Jura, France.
		Pasteur delivered the fatal blow to the doctrine of spontaneous generation, the theory held for 20 centuries that life could arise spontaneously in organic materials.
		Louis Pasteur discovered the method for the attenuation of virulent microorganisms that is the basis of vaccination.

	Pasteur Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Pasteur Institute (French: Institut Pasteur) is a French non-profit private foundation dedicated to the study of biology, microorganisms, diseases and vaccines.
		The Institut Pasteur was founded in 1887 by Louis Pasteur, the French scientist whose early experiments with fermentation led to pioneering research in bacteriology.
		The biggest mistake by the Institute was ignoring a dissertation by Ernest Duchesne on the use of Penicillium glaucum to cure infections in 1897.

	Pasteur, Louis - Great Men and Women of the World
		Pasteur's work on fermentation and spontaneous generation had considerable implications for medicine, because he believed that the origin and development of disease are analogous to the origin and process of fermentation.
		Pasteur's studies convinced him that he was right, however, and in the course of his career he extended the germ theory to explain the causes of many diseases.
		Pasteur spent the rest of his life working on the causes of various diseases-including septicemia, cholera, diphtheria, fowl cholera, tuberculosis, and smallpox-and their prevention by means of vaccination.

	ASNOM - Colonial Health Service and Overseas Pasteur Institutes
		Pasteur himself had expressed the wish that his discoveries would be beneficial to the most underprivileged populations and those most vulnerable to infectious and parasitic diseases.
		It is to the colonial military physicians thus trained in the school of Pasteur that the responsibility is given for the establishment and functioning of most of the vaccination centres and microbiology laboratories, of which many, just like those in Saigon and Dakar, have later become Pasteur Institutes.
		These tropical laboratories of the Pasteur Institute have also contributed towards the scientific and technical training of native collaborators and participated in higher education in the faculties of Medicine and Chemistry.

	Pasteur - The history of a mind
		Emile Duclaux followed the teachings of Pasteur, entered his laboratory as his assistant, was later his collaborator and actively participated in the founding of the Pasteur Institute.
		At the time Pasteur initiated his studies on fermentations there was quite a confusion of ideas and a multitude of arguments, particularly it was largely accepted that yeast was not involved in fermentation.
		Pasteur who had ingeniously defined a clear medium to study his ferments was ready to enter the arena.

	Pasteur's Papers on the Germ Theory
		He may be regarded as the founder of modern stereo-chemistry; and his discovery that living organisms are the cause of fermentation is the basis of the whole modern germ- theory of disease and of the antiseptic method of treatment.
		Pasteur's supposition that a ferment, unlike all other living organisms, can live and increase at the expense of oxygen held in combination, is, consequently, altogether wanting in any solid basis of experimental proof.
		Traube expresses himself thus: "Pasteur's conclusion, that yeast in the absence of air is able to derive the oxygen necessary for its development from sugar, is erroneous; its increase is arrested even when the greater part of the sugar still remains undecomposed.
