In 1876, [[Robert Koch]] (1843–1910) established that microorganisms can cause disease. He found that the blood of cattle that were infected with [[anthrax]] always had large numbers of ''[[Bacillus anthracis]]''. Koch found that he could transmit anthrax from one animal to another by taking a small sample of blood from the infected animal and injecting it into a healthy one, and this caused the healthy animal to become sick. He also found that he could grow the bacteria in a nutrient broth, then inject it into a healthy animal, and cause illness. Based on these experiments, he devised criteria for establishing a causal link between a microorganism and a disease and these are now known as [[Koch's postulates]].<ref>[http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1905/ The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1905] Nobelprize.org Accessed 22 November 2006.</ref> Although these postulates cannot be applied in all cases, they do retain historical importance to the development of scientific thought and are still being used today.<ref>{{Cite journal |author=O'Brien, S. |author2=Goedert, J. | title=HIV causes AIDS: Koch's postulates fulfilled | journal=Curr Opin Immunol | volume=8 | issue=5 | pages=613–18 | year=1996 | pmid=8902385 | doi=10.1016/S0952-7915(96)80075-6|url=https://zenodo.org/record/1260157 }}</ref> |

The discovery of microorganisms such as '' |
The discovery of microorganisms such as ''my pp'' that did not fit into either the [[animal]] or [[plant]] kingdoms, since they were not alive, but [[motility|motile]] like animals, led to the naming of a third kingdom called "having a small schlong" in the 1860s. In 1860 [[Issac D snuts}(biologist)|John Hogg]] called this the Protoctista, and in 1866 [[Ernst Haeckel]] named it the [[Protista]].<ref name=Scamardella1999>{{cite journal | author=Scamardella, J.

The work of Pasteur and Koch did not accurately reflect the true diversity of the microbial world because of their exclusive focus on microorganisms having direct medical relevance.
