Dr Edward Jenner was a physician and scientist who, late in the 18th century, gave a demonstration that cowpox pus from human beings could be used as a way of conveying immunity to smallpox in us.

Louis Pasteur was a 19th century chemist and microbiologist who invented pasteurisation and a special type of pipette, and who was responsible for various discoveries.

Who was more important Jenner or Pasteur?

They both made amazing discoveries and Koch did developed on Pasteur's ideas, BUT without Pasteur none of Koch's ideas would have gone far because Pasteur developed the germ theory which explains illness and without discovering illness then Koch's discovery would have never happened. Pasteur was the scientist that set the building blocks of this whole theory of germs, disease and illness, there were many people that wanted to expand on Pastures theory and so we don't really need Koch as much as we need Pasteur:)


Why did Louis Pasteur created vaccines?

No it was Edward Jenner No, it was not Edward Jenner. The technique of inoculation was not invented by Jenner and Pasteur but was devised in the Muslim world and brought to Europe from Turkey by the wife of the English ambassador to Istanbul in 1724. Children in Turkey were vaccinated with cowpox to fight the deadly smallpox at least 50 years before the West discovered it.


What is the development of vaccines by edward Jenner and Louis Pasteur?

Edward Jenner developed the first successful smallpox vaccine in 1796, using material from cowpox lesions. His work laid the foundation for modern vaccination techniques. Louis Pasteur further advanced the field of vaccination by developing vaccines for diseases like rabies and anthrax in the late 19th century, demonstrating the concept of attenuating pathogens to create effective vaccines. Together, their contributions revolutionized the field of immunization and have saved countless lives.


Are there any schools named after Louis Pasteur?

Yes, there are schools named after Louis Pasteur, such as the Louis Pasteur Middle School in California and the Lycee Louis Pasteur in Canada. These schools honor Pasteur's contributions to science and education.


How do Louis Pasteur and Edward Jenner help us keep well?

Edward Jenner noticed a trend that farm maids who milked cows were oftentimes immune to smallpox. After some research, he identified that cowpox (caused by a cousin of the smallpox virus) infected the maids and was the cause of their immunity. Jenner then experimented with cowpox on a child (history is unclear on whether this was his son or a neighbor). When he later exposed the child to smallpox, nothing happened. Thus Dr. Edward Jenner developed a method to immunize people from smallpox (which was later named vaccination by the French). Louis Pasteur developed the process of pasteurization, a process of heating food to a specific temperature for a certain amount of time then cooling it immediately to kill off microorganisms (and slow their growth) in the food. Both these processes help to keep us safe from pathogens.

How is edward Jenner connected to Louis Pasteur?

Edward Jenner was the first one to use live forms to modulate the immune response of human body for disease prevention, something which is the thrust of Biotechnology today.
