​

Answer 1

Answer:

Pasteur proved that he was right -about germs being carried in the air. It would be impossible to imagine Pasteur experimenting with explosives or poison gas. For three years he spent all his time and energy in tracking down the cause of a disease which had ruined the silkworm industry.

Answer 2

Answer:

He completed the first test on April 20, 1862. Today the process is known as pasteurization. Shifting focus, in 1865, Pasteur helped save the silk industry. He proved that microbes were attacking healthy silkworm eggs, causing an unknown disease and that the disease would be eliminated if the microbes were eliminated.
