the father of microbiology is Anton Van Leeuwenhoek at around 1695 when he first observed diatoms in a pond with his primitive microscope.

Although many people say it is Leeuwenhoek, because he invented and experimented with the microscope I'd have to say the right answer is Louis Pasteur because he set the foundation for microbiology and modern medicine. He discovered ways to minimize the spreading of disease by microbes, experimented with immunization, revealed the world of viruses by studying rabies and developed the process of pasteurization to eliminate some harmful microbes from food.

Leeuwenhoek-- he did some pretty interesting experiments...looking at pond water and stool under the microscope to observe what's in it...
