Best Answer

He used scientific method by first developing a theory based on the work of another scientist, Louis Pasteur. Then he proved the theory using experimentation. And now time has proven his theory even more so as over a century of medical science has further proven that he was correct. Before his theory half of those who underwent even minor surgery died from infection.
