Louis Pasteur is often regarded as one of the founders of microbiology, and is chiefly famous for his discovery of the role that microorganisms play in health and disease. However, he was trained as a physical scientist, and his research began with the discovery of the stereoisomerism of the different forms of tartaric acid. As a biotechnologist, he is remembered for his studies on the nature of fermentation, and for his rebuttal of the theory of spontaneous generation.
路易·巴斯德常被视为微生物学的奠基人之一，主要因其发现微生物在健康与疾病中所起的作用而闻名。然而，他接受的是物理科学家的训练，其研究始于发现酒石酸不同形式的立体异构现象。作为一名生物技术学家，他因对发酵本质的研究以及对自然发生说的反驳而被人们铭记。
