Best Answer

Microbiology began sometime in the 1600's with the invention of the microscope. The first thing studied was probably long strands of algae and it wasn't until microscopes were readily available in the 1800's that microbiology became of interest to scientists. The first major discovery in microbiology came from Louis Pasteur in the late-1800s when he discovered bacteria were to blame for wine and dairy products spoiled.
