Gerald L. Geison studied the lab notebooks of this scientist, who lied about using a technique developed by Jean-Joseph Toussaint [too-SAN] involving potassium dichromate. This scientist observed that two stereoisomers of tartaric acid rotate polarized light in opposite directions, and he recognized the cause of the disease flacherie [FLASH-eh-ree] in silkworms. This scientist developed a vaccine used on Joseph Meister against rabies, and he used a meat broth in a swan-neck flask to disprove the theory of spontaneous generation. For 10 points, name this French scientist who is the namesake of a process used to destroy harmful microorganisms in food.
