Fleming, Sir Alexander Sir Alexander Fleming (b. Aug. 6, 1881, Lochfield, Ayr, Scot.d. March 11, 1955, London, Eng.), Scottish bacteriologist whose discovery of penicillin (1928) prepared the way for the highly effective practice of antibiotic therapy for infectious diseases. Fleming shared the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1945 with Ernst Boris Chain and Howard Walter Florey , who both (from 1939) carried Fleming's basic discovery further in the isolation, purification, testing, and quantity production of penicillin. After taking his degree at St. Mary's Hospital Medical School, London University (1906), Fleming conducted experiments to discover antibacterial substances that would be nontoxic to human tissues. He continued his research while serving with distinction in the Royal Army Medical Corps in World War I. In 1918 he returned to research and teaching at St. Mary's; he became Hunterian professor (1919) and Arris and Gale lecturer (1928) at the Royal College of Surgeons. In 1921 Fleming identified and isolated lysozyme, an enzyme found in certain animal tissues and secretions, such as tears and saliva, that exhibits antibiotic activity. While working with

Sigmund Freud Leo Baekeland Albert Einstein Alexander Fleming ... Tim Berners-Lee Bacteriologist Alexander Fleming A spore that drifted into his lab and took root on a culture dish started a chain of events that altered forever the treatment of bacterial infections BY DR. DAVID HO The improbable chain of events that led Alexander Fleming to discover penicillin in 1928 is the stuff of which scientific myths are made. Fleming, a young Scottish research scientist with a profitable side practice treating the syphilis infections of prominent London artists, was pursuing his pet theorythat his own nasal mucus had antibacterial effectswhen he left a culture plate smeared with Staphylococcus bacteria on his lab bench while he went on a two-week holiday. When he returned, he noticed a clear halo surrounding the yellow-green growth of a mold that had accidentally contaminated the plate. Unknown to him, a spore of a rare variant called Penicillium notatum had drifted in from a mycology lab one floor below. Luck would have it that Fleming had decided not to store his culture in a warm incubator, and that London was then hit by a cold spell, giving the mold a chance to grow. Later, as the temperature rose, the Staphylococcus bacteria grew like a lawn, covering the entire plateexcept for the area surrounding the moldy contaminant. Seeing that halo was Fleming's "Eureka" moment, an instant of great personal insight and deductive reasoning. He correctly deduced that the mold must have released a substance that inhibited the growth of the bacteria.

Penicillin and the Bacteriologist: A Biographical Sketch of Alexander Fleming Kelly Sears Anatomy and Physiology of Domestic Animals, Department of Animal Science and Food Technology Texas Tech University, Lubbock 79409-2141 Abstract The objective of this biographical sketch is to give a brief overview of the life of Alexander Fleming and his contributions to modern medicine and physiology. Throughout Fleming’s life, he changed occupations numerous times from a shipping clerk to a surgeon and finally to a bacteriologist. He performed clinical trials with the drug salvarsan, determined that phenol was ineffective in treating wounds, discovered lysozyme, and by chance discovered penicillin, which he would do extensive research upon for the remainder of his career. He was knighted in 1944 for his accomplishments, and then in 1945, he and Howard Florey and Ernest Chain won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. He was also awarded other countless awards for his research and became an honorary member of almost every medical or scientific society in the world.

Fleming Fleming, sir Alexander Prix Nobel en 1945 Fleming, sir Alexander (1881-1955), médecin britannique et prix Nobel, surtout connu pour sa découverte de la pénicilline. Même sans la découverte et la reconnaissance de la valeur de la pénicilline, Fleming aurait laissé sa marque dans le domaine de la bactériologie pour ses études sur l'infection des blessures, l'antisepsie, les moyens de défense des tissus contre l'infection et, particulièrement, ses études sur le lysozyme . Ses travaux sur la pénicilline lui valent des honneurs additionnels, parce qu'ils affectent et modifient profondément la pratique médicale et chirurgicale en matière d'infections et marquent les débuts de l'ère des antibiotiques. Né près de Darvel dans le Ayrshire en Écosse et ayant fait ses études à l'hôpital Sainte-Marie de Londres, il fut professeur de bactériologie dans cet établissement de 1928 à 1948, date à laquelle il devint professeur émérite. Il fut anobli en 1944. Fleming fit des recherches remarquables en bactériologie, en chimiothérapie et en immunologie.

You will read the introduction, study the material in the provided sources, and answer the questions based on your own opinion. Use well-crafted sentences and detailed answers. After you are finished, complete the project at the bottom of this page. Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin. He was born in Scotland on August 6, 1881, and began researching medicine at St. Mary's in 1906. His discovery was accidental; he left a dirty culture plate on a bench while he went on vacation, and when he came back two weeks later there was a mold on the plate and all the bacteria around it was killed. He used this mold to develop an antibiotic, which he called penicillin. He received many awards for his discovery, including the Nobel Prize for physiology, and became very famous around the world. He died on March 11th, 1955, and is buried in St. Paul's Cathedral.

Alexander Fleming was born in 1881 at Lochfield, a farm outside Darvel, a small town in Ayrshire, Scotland. He was the third child, with seven other brothers and sisters. After completing his education at Regent Street Polytechnic, London in 1897, he took an office job for a few years. In 1901, he quit his job and went to St. Mary Hospital to study medicine. He then worked in Almroth Wright's research team as a research assistant with a strong interest in bacteriology. During the war between Britain and Germany in 1914, Fleming joined the British Royal Army Medical Corps to develop a cure to reduce the number of soldiers dying from infected wounds. He argued that antiseptics were not effective in preventing wounds from becoming infected. His argument was, however, rejected and little was done to relieve the suffering of many wounded soldiers. When World War I was over, Fleming continued working at St. Mary's Hospital. One day in 1928, before tossing some old petri dishes of culture away, he made an accidental discovery of a blue mold growing on the culture of some harmful kind of bacteria. The mold seemed to be able to kill off the bacteria. A series of experiments later proved his findings and led to the discovery of penicillin. It was a strain of penicillia which could kill off bacteria while not causing any damage to wounds. It worked against many kinds of bacteria and was mostly safe for the human body. Unfortunately, with insufficient support from the medical community, the research had to stop.
