Anton Van Leeuwenhoek is credited with inventing the microscope around the late 16th century and early 17th century, specifically in the 1670s. He is considered the father of microbiology for his pioneering work in developing the microscope and observing microorganisms for the first time.
Short Answer:Antonie (Anton) van Leeuwenhoek first looked at cloth in a microscope.More interestingly, we know from a letter dated April 28, 1673, the first report of a scientific subject. In this van Leeuwenhoek described that he had seen mold, bees, and lice, but that was just the beginning of 50 years of microscope investigations.Long Answer:Van Leeuwenhoek was using a microscope in his trade looking at cloth since he was an apprentice to a cloth merchant at 16 years old. He had to wait 20 more years for the instrument of his trade to be transformed into the instrument for his legacy in science.His interests in the microscope matured and by 1668 he had learned to make polish his own lenses. About 1670, he discovered a method of making very small spherical lenses capable of a magnification far exceeding the best compound microscopes in the world. He used and improved this to begin wide ranging investigations of many subject, including plants, animals and insects.An acquaintance realized that his observations were truly the best of their kind in the world and got van Leeuwenhoek to write a description which his associate would send to the Royal Society of London.History has save this letter, dated April 28, 1673, in which van Leeuwenhoek described three things that he had seen using his hand-made microscopes: mold, bees, and lice.That is the first recorded observation by van Leeuwenhoek his new microscopes.To learn about the single celled "animalcules," the world had to wait until October, 1676, when the Royal Society received another letter from van Leeuwenhoek saying, "In the year of 1675 I difcover'd living creatures in Rain water...."
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek was a Dutch scientist known as the "Father of Microbiology." He is credited with the invention of the microscope and the discovery of bacteria, protists, sperm cells, and other microorganisms. Leeuwenhoek's groundbreaking research laid the foundation for the field of microbiology.

Antonie Philips van Leeuwenhoek is known for his pioneering work in microscopy and the discovery of microorganisms, including bacteria and sperm cells, in the 1670s. He did not invent the human cell, but his observations greatly contributed to our understanding of the microscopic world.
Anton van Leeuwenhoek witnessed living cells in the 17th century. He made this discovery sometime around the 1670s.
Robert Hooke invented his first microscope in 1665.
One famous quote by Anton van Leeuwenhoek is "I have been able to see the smallest living creatures, whose very existence was unknown before to the most careful microscopist."
No, the microscope was invented by van Leewonhook, a dutchman, about the year 1600.
