ALEXANDER FLEMING
BIOGRAFIA
Alexander Fleming was born in Scotland. He worked as a microbiologist at St.
Mary's Hospital in London until the beginning of the First World War. In this
hospital he worked in the Department of Inoculations, dedicated to the
improvement and manufacture of vaccines or injections and serums.
Almorth Edward Wright, Secretary of the Department, aroused Fleming's
interest in new treatments for infections.
During the war he was a military doctor on the fronts of France and was
impressed by the high mortality caused by infected shrapnel wounds (for
example, gas gangrene) in field hospitals. After the war, he returned to St.
Mary's Hospital where he intensely sought a new antiseptic that avoided the
harsh agony caused by the wounds.
Discoveries
• The two discoveries of Fleming occurred in the twenties and although they were accidental demonstrate the
great capacity of observation and intuition of this Scottish doctor. He discovered lysozyme after mucus, from
a sneeze, fell on a Petri dish in which a bacterial culture grew. A few days later he noticed that the bacteria
had been destroyed in the place where the nasal fluid had been deposited.
• Fleming's lab was usually messy, which was an advantage for his next discovery. In September 1928, he was
conducting several experiments in his laboratory and on the 22nd, when inspecting his crops before
destroying them he noticed that the colony of a fungus had grown spontaneously, as a contaminant, on one
of the Petri dishes planted with Staphylococcus aureus . Fleming later observed the plaques and found that
the bacterial colonies that were around the fungus (later identified as Penicillium notatum) were transparent
due to bacterial lysis. To be more exact, Penicillium is a mold that produces a natural substance with
antibacterial effects: penicillin. Lysis meant the death of the bacteria, and where appropriate, that of the
pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) grown on the plaque. Although he immediately recognized the
significance of this finding, his colleagues underestimated him. Fleming reported his discovery of penicillin in
the British Journal of Experimental Pathology in 1929

Alexander fleming

  • 2. BIOGRAFIA Alexander Fleming was born in Scotland. He worked as a microbiologist at St. Mary's Hospital in London until the beginning of the First World War. In this hospital he worked in the Department of Inoculations, dedicated to the improvement and manufacture of vaccines or injections and serums. Almorth Edward Wright, Secretary of the Department, aroused Fleming's interest in new treatments for infections. During the war he was a military doctor on the fronts of France and was impressed by the high mortality caused by infected shrapnel wounds (for example, gas gangrene) in field hospitals. After the war, he returned to St. Mary's Hospital where he intensely sought a new antiseptic that avoided the harsh agony caused by the wounds.
  • 3. Discoveries • The two discoveries of Fleming occurred in the twenties and although they were accidental demonstrate the great capacity of observation and intuition of this Scottish doctor. He discovered lysozyme after mucus, from a sneeze, fell on a Petri dish in which a bacterial culture grew. A few days later he noticed that the bacteria had been destroyed in the place where the nasal fluid had been deposited. • Fleming's lab was usually messy, which was an advantage for his next discovery. In September 1928, he was conducting several experiments in his laboratory and on the 22nd, when inspecting his crops before destroying them he noticed that the colony of a fungus had grown spontaneously, as a contaminant, on one of the Petri dishes planted with Staphylococcus aureus . Fleming later observed the plaques and found that the bacterial colonies that were around the fungus (later identified as Penicillium notatum) were transparent due to bacterial lysis. To be more exact, Penicillium is a mold that produces a natural substance with antibacterial effects: penicillin. Lysis meant the death of the bacteria, and where appropriate, that of the pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) grown on the plaque. Although he immediately recognized the significance of this finding, his colleagues underestimated him. Fleming reported his discovery of penicillin in the British Journal of Experimental Pathology in 1929
