He was responsible for techniques used to estimate the bacterial number in a solution, simple stinging techniques, for bacterial cells and flagella, along with the technique used to transfer bacteria between media. Robert Koch was the first to use a petri dish, to photomicrograph bacteria, and to photomicrograph bacteria in diseased tissue. These techniques helped him discover his first disease bacilliumanthraxis a bacteria causing anthrax. Other diseases Kock also looked into were Tuberculosis in Berlin and Cholera which he was sent to Egypt to investigate about. Koch being the founder of bacteriology impacted science and microbiology tremendously. He broke out of the normal and experimented to find the bacteria that derived from diseases. His techniques laid out the concept of what was considered the causing agent bacteria. The techniques he used also allowed many scientist to discover the causes of most protozoan and bacterial diseases as well as certain viral diseases. For example, Laveran found protozoan is the cause of malaria and Kelbs found the bacteria responsible for causing

He originally wanted to study natural science, but he was unable to because he did not have the proper funding. A major in medicine was funded by the government. Afterwards, he was offered a full scholarship at the Friedrich Wilhelm Medical Institute in Berlin as long as after he graduated he served as an army doctor for eight years. In 1843, after graduating from medical schools he would work in laboratories working on different experiments as well as serving as an army surgeon.
On April 2, 1988, the day before Easter Sunday, a naked man with only a dog collar around his neck jumped from the second-story window in Kansas City’s Hyde Park neighborhood. A neighbor found the man crouched on his porch and immediately called the authorities. When the authorities arrived and broke into the unassuming white house they found a torture dungeon.

Epidemics of the 19th century were faced without the improved medical technologies that made the 20th and 21st-century epidemics rare and less lethal. It was in the 18th century that micro-organisms (viruses and bacteria) were discovered, but it was not until the late 19th century that the experiments of Lazzaro Spallanzani and Louis Pasteur disagreed with the spontaneous generation argument conclusively, crediting the germ theory and Robert Koch 's discovery of micro-organisms as the cause of disease transmission. Therefore, throughout the majority of the 19th century, there was only the most basic, understanding of the causes, amelioration and treatment of epidemic disease.
There are many companies that have committed a crime against nature, many are man-made crimes. Probably one of the most known perpetrators is the Koch Brothers.

From researching cholera, Simon discovered that the “germ” cholera has properties similar to a cell. This is an early identification of a bacterial cell, before anyone knew what a bacterial cell was.
Friedrich Loeffler and Paul Froschin in 1898 found evidence that etiology of foot-and-mouth disease in livestock was an infectious particles that are smaller than any bacteria.That was the first clue that there is a genetic entity that that lie somewhere in between living and non-living states.
From my birth, to my first steps, to learning to ride a bike; My mom has always been there for me. She has been my biggest supporters at every sporting event, my number one fan in life. The amount of advice and life lessons I have learned from her are countless. It all started when I was 10 years old, a girl just starting middle school. With this step in my life came a boatload of new opportunities, but also responsibilities that I was not prepared for. At the time I was a bit blind, and needed somebody to help open up my eyes to the real world. I have never gotten anything in life without working at least a little bit for it. I remember when I was going into middle school and it was time for back to school shopping. My best friend had just gone to the Woodfield Mall and had an extensive shopping spree. I became jealous of her new items and wanted them for myself too, so I spent several days online shopping and compiled a list of items that I wanted, worth about the same as a new car. When my mom got home from work the following night, I presented this list to her. Thinking that this was completely reasonable, I started with my wants from Nordstrom: “Ok, so I want all nineteen of these shirts, and I need to add to my jewelry collection, so these five necklaces, and the total will only be 978 bucks!”
