(DSB) ---- "Virtually every work that PASTEUR published during his lifetime, including all of his books, monographs and scientific papers, has been reproduced in the monumental and magnificent Oeuvres de PASTEUR by PASTEUR VALLERY-RADOT edition (7 vols, Paris 1922/1939). This work also contains a number of letters, notes and manuscripts that were not published during PASTEUR's lifetime including several reports by commissions of the Academie des Sciences. Each volume has a brief introduction by PASTEUR VALLERY-RADOT, who adds helpfull editorial notes and comments throughout... In every way Oeuvres de Pasteur is a triumph of careful and diligent scholarship". (DSB X p. 411) ---- GARRISON N° 83 : "One of the founders of bactériology, Pasteur is at the same time one of the greatest figures in the history of medicine. His work on fermentation, the doctrine of spontaneous generation (which he exploded), virus diseases and preventive vaccinations, was fundamental"

First appearance of the paper in which Pasteur and Jouber persuasively established that Anthrax is caused by a living organism, beeing Pasteur's first paper on Anthrax and of fundamental importence for bacteriology.""By greatly increasing the number of cultures (Koch had stopped at eight) and by using a much larger volume of cultural liquid each time, Pasteur diluted an initial drop of anthrax blood to the point of virtual disappearance. Nonetheless, each successive culture retained the original virulence. In his view this result persuasively established the dependence of anthrax on a living microorganism, for no other agent could have retained its power through so drastic a dilution. Only an agent which reproduced itself in each successive culture—almost certainly a living organism-could be responsible for the continued virulence of the original drop of blood.""(DSB).Garrison & Morton: 5168.

First appearance of one of the founding papers in the realm of antibiotics, being the discovery of ""Vibrion septique"" (Cl. septicum), the first pathogenic anaerobe to be found. ""Pasteur and Joubert were probably the first to realize the practical implications of antibiosis. They noted the antagonism between Bacillus anthracis and other bacteria cultures (in the paper offered)""(Garrison & Morton: No. 1932.1 and 2490).

First printing of this landmark paper (published in full the year after in ""Mémoires de la Societe des Sciences, de l'Agriculture et des arts de Lille"" and in ""Annales de Chimie et de Physique"" (1858)), marking Pasteur's commencement of the study of fermentation. The offered paper was read in extract on the Séance du Lundi 30 Novembre). Here Pasteur found that lactic acid fermentation is due to small corpuscles of yeast cells, and thus carried out by living bacteria. He hereby ended the long controversy with Liebig, who insisted that fermentation was a purrely chemical phenomenon that did not involve living organisms. THE MEMOIR IS CONSIDERED THE FOUNDING PAPER OF MICROBIOLOGY.""Pateur's researches on fermentationm led him to the discovery of the bacteria and yeasts and hence to the germ theory of disease: FROM THIS ALL MODERN BACTERIOLOGY AND IMMUNIOLOGY DEVELOPED.""(Garrison & Morton, note to 2472).""There (at the University of Lille) he became interested in the problem of France's importent wine industry. Wine and beer often went sour as they aged and millions of francs were lost as a result. Wasn't there some chemical to prevent this ? In 1856 a Lille industrialist turned to the famous young chemist and put the problem to him. Pasteur agreed to tackle the matter and turned to the microscope. He found almost at once that when the wine and beer aged properly, the liquid contains little speherical globules of yeast cells. When wine and beer turn sour, the yeast cells are elongated. Clearly there are two types of yeast, one of which produces alcohol (good) and the other lactic acid (bad). Pasteur was the first to show definitely that fermentation involves living organisms and that it is necessary to supply the correct organism to provide the correct type of fermentation.""(Isaac Asimov).Dibner No. 198.

First appearance of these importent papers in which Pasteur proved and concluded that putrefaction was, like fermentation caused by living organisms and they are, therefore, analogous processes, for both involve the decomposition of substatances of organisms living in the absence of air. He also here introduced the process of ""PASTEURIZATION"". The last paper is listed as PMM 336 (d).In these papers ""he discovered other organisms that live without air and established the idea of aerobic and anaerobic life and first used these names (1863). Aerobes were only able to live in presence of free oxygen, whereas anaerobic or zymics, as he called them, grew in the absence of oxygen.""(Bullocdh ""The History of Bacteriology"", p. 61).

First printing of a milestone paper in microbiology, being the paper in which Pasteur disclosed his discovery of organisms that lived without oxygen. Two years later he named them anaerobic or zymics, contrasting to aerobic which only lived in the presence of free oxygen.""In 1861 he turned his attention to the butyric fermentation and made another importent discovery, viz. that this fermentation proceeds in the absence of oxygen. In the fermented material he found cylindrical rods, which he showed were the cause of the fermentation. Following the nomenclature and ideas of the time he regarded them as animal in character and named them Vibrio..."" (Bullock ""The History of Bacteriology"", p. 61).

First appearance of the suite of the 4 groundbreaking papers marking the downfall of the theory of spontaneous generation, and all of Pasteur's later work in this field can be seen as an extension, elaboration, and defence of the principles and methods set forth here. It is from these conclusions all modern bacteriology and immunology have developed. Pasteur was awarded the Zecker Price 1861 for these discoveries. ""Pasteur's publications on the subject of spontaneous generation consists chiefly of communications to the Academy of Sciences in Paris and published in abstracts in the Comptes rendus... (the paper offered)... In these communication he dealt with the collection and demonstration of erms in the air, the origin of ferments, the distribution of germs in nature, and many other questions. These reports were finally expanded in his famous ""Memoire sur les corpuscules organisés qui existent dans l'atmosphere. Examen de la doctrine de génerations spontanées"", which was published in 1861.

First printing of an importent paper in biochemistry announcing the discovery of enantioselectivity. Pasteur's milestone discovery of biological enantioselectivity began the process that in the long run established the fundamental importance of molecular chirality in biology.""In 1858 he made an importent discovery in connexion with the fermentation of tartaric acid. he observed, if incompletely, the characters of the organisms which causes the fermentation in ammonium tartrate, and transferring a trace of the organism to a solution of racemate of ammonia, which of course is optically inactive, he found that the fermenting solution gradually acquired a left rotatory power until finally the right-handed salt disappeared and laevotartaric acid was left untouched. The organism which achieced this feat was probably a PENICILLIM (1860)."" (Bulloch, The History of Bacteriology, p. 60).

First printing of Pasteur's first report on the silkworm disease. Between 1855 and 1865 a widespread epidemic among silk worms called pebrine alarmed the south of France, so much so that finally, in 1865, it drew national attention. In June 1865 the government sent Pasteur down to investigate the disease, and the first report was already finished by the 25th of September, the paper offered.
