April 30, 1885 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on the book "Louis Pasteur. His Life and Labors." The book describes fermentation and the fermentation on which he worked. It describes that different fermentations are produced by different kinds of organisms. The investigation of the cause of fermentations leads directly to the question of spontaneous generation. Pasteur's experiments show not only that the cause of virulent diseases, as of fermentations, is a microscopic parasite, but that this living organism can be cultivated in the laboratory of the physicist, and can be used, under certain conditions brought about at the skill of the cultivator, as a complete protection from the malady which under other conditions it creates.
