I have already given you some facts about the discovery of the microbial world and the life of Leeuwenhoek. If you are interested about Leeuwenhoek’s life you will get to know about him in my nest post which will be about his life in short. So keep visiting my blog. I will also post an article on one of the most life threatening diseases of this planet – Malaria soon. But after the discovery of the “Microbial World” the nest thing that comes in mind is the origin of these microorganisms. So our next focus will be “The Origin of Microbial World”.
There are mainly two kinds of belief from the beginning regarding the origin of this wonder world. The first thought was about the belief that “animalcules” were formed spontaneously from nonliving materials. The second thought (Leeuwenhoek is one of the follower) told about formation of microbes from the “seeds” & “germs” of these animalcules, which were always present in the air.
The first thought was known as spontaneously generation or abiogenesis & this doctrine was accepted without question until the Renaissance.
