In 1881 he discovered the germ that causes tubercu- losis and two years later the germ that causes Asiatic chol- era. His later work has been directed toward the discovery of a cure for tuberculosis and other germ diseases. As yet, however, no certain cure seems to have been found. Lister and Antiseptic Treat- ment of Wounds. - - A third great benefactor of mankind was Sir Joseph Lister, an Eng- lishman who was born in 1827. As a professor of surgery he first applied antiseptics in the op- erating room. By means of the use of carbolic acid or other antiseptics on the surface of wounds, on instruments, and on the hands and clothing of the operating surgeons, disease germs were prevented from taking a foothold in the wounds. Thus blood poisoning was prevented. This single discovery has done more to prevent death after operations than any other of recent time.
