Phenol was introduced into surgical practice by

  • A.Joseph Lister
  • B.Louis Pasteur
  • C.Robert Koch
  • D.Alexander Fleming

Answer: A

Lister used carbolic acid on wounds, dressings and in the operating theatre, and the fall in post-operative sepsis established antiseptic surgery. Pasteur and Koch shaped the germ theory it rested on, and Fleming's work on penicillin came much later.
