Around the 19th century
Robert Koch, in 1877, discovered that anthrax microbes caused anthrax. He further isolated tuberculosis in 1882. This followed Louis Pasteur's discoveries in 1862 of pasteurization as a way to prevent spoilage of various beverages. Along with Koch and Pasteur, Ferdinand Cohn, are considered the three fathers of modern bacteriology.
