Best Answer

Since no woman was the first to explain concepts in Microbiology, the title of father of Microbiology is given to Antonie van Leeuwenhoek.
Angelina Fanny Hesse (family cook) made the isolation of bacteria possible. In the early 1880's, Walther was struggling to find the right sort of gel for Petri's dishes.

Hitchens and Leikind suggested (seventy five years ago) that plain agar be referred to as Frau Hesse's medium to acknowledge her forgotten service to science and to humanity. Perhaps it's finally time that we remember Frau Hesse and celebrate all the ignored bead collectors working in the laboratories and kitchens that make science possible.
