Main event
With the light hand of the French philologist Littre put into circulation the term "microbe"
February 26, 1878
The science that deals with the study of microorganisms is called microbiology.
For the first time, microorganisms were discovered more than 250 years ago, in the 17th century, when it became possible to observe them with optical instruments, giving an increase of 160-200 times.
The discoverer of the microworld is the Netherlands naturalist Anton van Leeuwenhoek, who in 1675, with the help of his microscope, first saw microscopic creatures.
Microorganisms include prokaryotes (bacteria, archaea), various forms of eukaryotes (fungi, algae, protozoa) and others.
The word "microbe" was invented by philologist and philosopher Emile Littre, the author of the fundamental "Dictionary of the French language". French scientist Charles Sedio asked Emile Littre to find a suitable name for microorganisms. Littre found the excellent word "microbe". This fact is recorded in a letter sent by a philologist on February 26, 1878.
