Best Answer

Antony van Leeuwenhoek (1632-1723) discovered bacteria, free-living and parasitic microscopic protists, sperm cells, blood cells, microscopic nematodes and rotifers, and much more with the microscopes he made. He referred to these organisms as animalcules. His research, which was widely circulated, opened up an entire world of microscopic life to the awareness of scientists.

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek discovered cells in a microscope.

Van Leeuwenhoek's main discoveries are:

* the infusoria (protists in modern zoological classification), in 1674

* the bacteria, (e.g. large Selenomonads from the human mouth), in 1676

* the spermatozoa in 1677. Van Leeuwenhoek had troubles with Dutch theologists about his practice.

* the banded pattern of muscular fibers, in 1682.
