At this time the north-east China didn't care about soybeans and often use it as field fertilizer. When they let the soybeans rot they noticed a fungus that grew on the soybean curds which they used to cure citizens with boils. This same fungus, even today, gives us the antibiotic, streptomycin, that is our main defence against the bacterium like Yersinia pestis which caused the Bubonic Plague.]]> 2021-11-10 04:14:49 UTC https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880293084 s157754 https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880294971 Hippocrates was a geek physician also known as the father of medicine would prescribe honeycombs and vinegar to patients with coughs in greece that wouldnt go away after from rest, cleanness, and good diet. He discover the other uses of vinegar like hows good for the healing properties in the 400 BCE. Theres varieties of ways to use vinegar because of the discover of Hippocrates before it was used as pickle food by Babylonian. For instance, cleaning in laboratories and in health like treating lice, ear inflections, and warts.]]> 2021-11-10 04:15:48 UTC https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880294971 s157754 https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880296389 In London an english philosopher named Robert Hooke examined a piece of cork under an microscope. In “Micrographia” his book made 1663 he begins describes cells as “much like a Honey-comb, but that the pores of it were not regular… these pores, or cells,…were indeed the first microscopical pores I ever saw, and perhaps, that were ever seen, for I had not met with any Writer or Person, that had made any mention of them before this…”(Hooke). Hooke discovery of plant cells helped form the Cell Theory. Which given us an understanding that plants/living things has cells and the understanding of dieases. ]]> 2021-11-10 04:16:36 UTC https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880296389 s157754 https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880319490 Antonie van Leeuwenhoek is a dutch microbiologist who discovered microorganisms after scraping his teeth placing them under a microscope in Delft around 1673. Microorganism like bacteria has it importance/purpose so Leeuwenhoek discovery of microbes helped figure out the role of microorganisms in the us and the environment. In today's time we know that microorganism is like a sewage treatment in our body that couldn't been known without Leeuwenhoek. ]]> 2021-11-10 04:30:29 UTC https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880319490 s157754 https://padlet.com/s157754/ip5sturukeubwi2b/wish/1880321560  Antonie van Leeuwenhoek also discovered bacteria. In Delft 1675 Leeuwenhoek closely observed water to find tiny organisms he wrote a letter spreading the information. This discovery helped backup Robert Hooke recent discoveries. Along that Leeuwenhoek brought light towards smaller things instead big things like bacteria and microbes which contributes onto the bigger picture.

In Wollstein Germany, along the farms animals he built a small laboratory where he study dieases. Dieases like tuberculosis caused many deaths in germany so Koch’s work lead to Noble prize in 1905.

At the Rockfeller institute of medical research in New York he would transferred bacteria-free/cell-free extracts from a chicken with a lump in its breast to a healthy chicken he even won an noble prize of this discovery. Without Rous discover we have a lack of understanding on what virus causes all cells to become inflected.
