First of all, antisepsis is the concept of preventing contamination from external (i.e bacterial, fungal, protozal) organisms. In theory, washing your hands is a manifestation of antiseptic procedure.

One can not create "antisepsis," only apply it in new methods.

Joseph Lister, 1st Baron Lister, first discovered the antiseptic properties carbolic acid as a means of sterilizing surgical implements in 1867. He published his findings in the British Medical Journal on the 21st of September, 1867.

FUN FACT!! The common oral debriding and sanitizing agent, Listerine, is actually named for Joseph Lister.

Joseph Lister introduced the first aseptic technique to surgery ( critical! Students and physicians scrubbed their hands with chlorinated lime instead of soap and water) because of the rates of childbed (puerperal) fever - a contagious disease caused by an infection passed to pregnant women by their doctors, who frequently moved from patient to patient, and even from autopsy to patient, without washing their hands.

Joseph Lister developed antiseptic surgery, saving innumerable patients from the dreadful pain and death of post-surgical infection by ensuring that surgical wounds were sterile. He reduced the mortality rate of amputations from over 40% down to 5% by introducing asepsis to surgery. He also invented the use of catgut sutures (stitches) which could be sterilized before use and are absorbed by the body so useful for internal suturing. He was knighted by the queen after treating a problem she had in her left armpit

GRAWH! MOO!

Please do ignore the idiotic first answer. There wasn't really much of a relationship between Pasteur and Lister since they were in different countries and all that, but Lister did use Pasteur's work to help him with his whole antiseptic phenomena.

Through reading Pasteur's work on finding 'germs' in his beetroot beer, and how 'germs' affect other things, Lister applied this to septicemia that was common after operations or any other kind of cut and it made sense. He then used carbolic acid when operating, spraying everything from the instruments used, to his own hands.

Seriously, if you have nothing better to do but put idiotic comments on people's questions that they generally may need help with, just go away and get a job to fill your time IDIOT!

Joseph Jackson Lister invented the achromatic microscope in 1826. His son, Joseph Lister was a surgeon who began the idea of antiseptic surgery. He wanted to kill microbes that caused infections such as gangrene in wounds. So he developed a technique where he sprayed phenol or carbolic acid to disinfect wounds and medical instruments. His contribution to sanitation in the medical field caused a decline in infection and death in his patients.

As a student Lister did microscopic research, and his acceptance of Louis Pasteur's work later may be related to his familiarity with the process of fermentation since childhood. After graduating from theUniversity of London in 1852, Lister began a surgical career in Edinburgh; in 1860 he became professor of surgery at the Royal Infirmary in Glasgow.
