What did Joseph Lister use to prevent infection?

The main thing Lister used was simple sanitation. Things like hand washing and clean clothes were a pretty radical idea, and Lister actually caught some flack over it. At the time, a bloody apron was a sign of experience in a surgeon. Things like bacteria were rather laughable. It was believed infections were caused by miasmas, and maggots spontaneously formed. Lister was also a forerunner in antiseptics. He used carbolic acid as a disinfectant, and developed other antibacterial solutions.
