He didn't - that was John Snow of England. Snow didn't know EXACTLY what was in the water that caused cholera to spread, but he was able to prove, to most everyone's satisfaction, that it was contaminated water, and not foul air, that caused cholera to spread.

It was his study of how to find the antidote for rabies. Louis Pasteur's fields of study were: He was a chemist and microbiologist.Further information:Pasteur is regarded as the founder of microbiology. He discovered the role bacteria played in the process of fermentation. He experimented with bacteria and completely disproved the theory of spontaneous generation. This led to the theory that infection is caused by germs. Pasteur used this knowledge to develop the process in which liquids such as milk were heated to kill all bacteria and moulds already present within them. This process became known as pasteurisation.Pasteur then recognised that infectious diseases are caused by microorganisms. His research soon led others to investigate sterilisation, disinfection, vaccines, and eventually antibiotics. Pasteur created and tested vaccines for diphtheria, cholera, yellow fever, plague, rabies, anthrax, and tuberculosis.Hope this helps :)
