In 1922 Alexander Fleming (1881-1955)(1)
it has a heavy cold that lasts for
several days: he decided to take a sample of your nasal secretions and
incubate plates for bacterial culture, in order to assess the possible growth
of some bacterial colony.
The next day, while analyzing the colonies of bacteria grown, its tear falls
inadvertently on the culture plate: Fleming does not give weight to the
incident and, after making his comments, he puts the plate.
The next day, taking into consideration the same culture, he realizes with
astonishment that the bacteria grew everywhere except at a point, where
you can see clearly an area round and clear: just where the previous day's
fall the tear. Do you think then that the tear can be a substance with
antibiotic natural, responsible for the death of the bacteria or inhibition of
their growth: in fact occurs as a result that it is an enzyme capable of
destroying bacterial cells and baptizes him because lysozyme its
characteristic activities that seeks to exploit to the treatment of infectious
diseases.
______________
(1) Alexander Fleming was born to Grace Morton, second wife of Hugh Fleming,
August 6, 1881 in Lochfield in Ayrshire, rural region of Scotland. It comes from a
family of farmers. Childhood play between the moors and develops interest in natural
phenomena; then he says: "I and my brothers unknowingly, we learned a lot from
nature." He lost his father in seven years, he attended the Polytechnic School in Regent
Street. He works hard in the studies but does not excel in performance and brother Tom
encourages him to be employed in a shipping company. Soon, not enthusiastic
employment deemed boring and too humble, profits of a small inheritance to study at
the Faculty of Medicine at St. Mary's Hospital in London, among the most modern of
the time. Student of exceptional ability, easily surpasses the exams, he receives awards
and was chosen as internal student from Sir Almroth Wright, microbiologist, professor
of pathology and immunology of the leading experts of the time. Under his leadership
understands the importance of developing an immunity to heal the body from infection,
and that the director directs his research. At the outbreak of World War I with most of
the staff of the laboratory of St. Mary's Hospital reaches Boulogne in France to treat
wounded soldiers on the front. Fleming became medical officer and his intent is to
search for effective treatments against infections of war wounds: Wright and Fleming
find that all antiseptics available to combat them are useless because the wounds with
ragged gaps and corners are inaccessible to solutions antiseptic, such as phenol which
must be used at low concentration for its destructive action to the treated tissue.

However, the lysozyme presents only a mild antimicrobial activity but is
unable to kill pathogenic microorganisms more aggressive and resistant
such as, for example, the managers of suppurative infections.
The idea of finding an effective antibiotic is therefore for the time being
shelved.
February 13, 1929 to the Medical Research Club in London a report of
Alexander Fleming, in announcing the possibility of obtaining from the
mold a molecule to fight infections more pernicious, is lost in the
indifference of a public distracted, also because of Fleming same, scientist
of value, but shy and reserved temperament, holding his report in subdued
tones, almost more concerned to emphasize the initial state of the research
compared to important progress.
The report is also published in the prestigious British Journal of
Experimental Pathology, but no one is dealing with.
Fleming, like many other innovators, must make the bitter observation that
the contemporary power, be it political or doctor, he often especially as
concern to protect himself and that all the news, therefore, have the
character of potential hazard.
The discovery of penicillin falls well into the void, remaining there for a
decade.
In 1940 Fleming is aware of the studies conducted by two researchers from
Oxford, who have not forgotten his discovery and showed the activity of
penicillin against some bacteria, in the absence of toxic side effects at
therapeutic doses: it is the ' Australian Howard Walter Florey (1898-1968),
a pathologist at the University of Oxford, and the German Ernst Boris
Chain (1906-1979), pharmacologist and biochemist jew German exile from
Nazi Germany hosted in Oxford by Florey(2)
and naturalized British.
The August 16, 1941 is published in the British medical journal The Lancet
article "Further observations on penicillin" signed by seven researchers,
including Howard Walter Florey and Ernst Boris Chain: it describes the
case of a teenager affeto septicemia in which the administration of
penicillin led to a spectacular regression of fever and a sudden
improvement in clinical condition.

The event that after only 3 days of treatment the patient can get up, which
in the absence of complications is routine nowadays, caused a sensation at
the time, doing almost speak of a miracle.
It's the old concept of "antibiosis".
While this work is proceeding slowly, out of the laboratory World War II
rages and becomes more and more pressing need to have available in large
quantities is an effective antibiotic for the troops engaged in the conflict for
the civilian population of the European allies: in both cases the incidence of
infections, facilitated by lack of food and poor living conditions, is
progressive and worrying increase.
With the hope of being able to reduce the loss of life, and ultimately the
social cost of the war, are made available to scientists huge amounts of
capital, giving a major boost to research the following two lines: the first is
to synthesize the molecule in the laboratory, without the direct intervention
of the mold, the second one aims at increasing production of penicillin
using fermentation processes.
The first way proves too long to go to give quick results, reaching the
intended objective well after the end of the war, while the second is that
winning.
The December 2, 1942 was born in Boston the era of antibiotics, when
some patients with severe burns are treated with a new and secret drug
developed by a group of researchers who moved to the US because of the
war.
The discovery of penicillin is the result of the intuition of Alexander
Fleming and the work of the British physiologist Howard Florey and the
German chemist Ernst Chain and the enormous amount of money that the
US government has made in this research to find a trump infections that kill
thousands and thousands of wounded soldiers on the various war fronts.
In 1943 it manages to produce a sufficient amount of penicilllina treat 15
wounded Eighth Army of the United States of America in Egypt.
Britain, because of the enormous economic cost caused by the war, is
unable to cope alone with the cost of scientific research on penicillin: each
dose costs a fortune and is necessary to resort to cooperation with the
United States to bring complete the study in time to be able to use the
results during the Second World War.
In order to coordinate the efforts of the British and US allies for the large-
scale production of penicillin, Florey went to the United States, the
Northern Regional Research Laboratory of the US Department of
Agriculture in Peoria, Illinois, where for a while you are doing research on
the reuse of the remains of grain processing.

The proposed Fleming to use them to enrich the soil where they are grown
molds producing penicillin is successful when debris, properly treated, are
added to the cultures, you get a tenfold increase in the production of
antibiotics.
You think, then, do come from all over the world different samples of mold
Penicillium, assuming that some varieties produce a lot of penicillin and
other less, to identify likely to produce the greatest amount of antibiotic.
As it happens to be a winner in this contest "world" is a must sent a woman
from the same town of Peoria, Mary Hunt: This variety is, therefore, called
Mary mold.
The woman discovered on the surface of a melon she bought a mold "as
beautiful and golden color" to get her to bring a sample to the laboratory of
Peoria. The introduction of this mold in the production process increases
tenfold the production capacity launching definitively the large-scale use of
penicillin. With studies tightened, then, it is always given in 1943 the first
structural formula of the penicillin in which it turns out that, even though
there is a central portion common, there are numerous variations due to the
presence of side chains attached to the common core.
Chain and Florey, furthermore, prove that penicillin is a chemical
compound with a well determined structure which is, then, demonstrated
through the analysis of crystallographic Dorothy Hodgkin (1910-1994) that
determine the precise structure of the penicillin molecule in 1946.
This great discovery opens the way for further research on the synthesis of
penicillin. From this moment, millions of people around the world, during
and after the war, would have been saved from the product of this mold
miraculous, identified at this point as the "magic bullet", whose discovery
at the beginning of the century Ehrlich had hoped, to "kill the infectious
organism without harming the host": Alexander Fleming has initiated the
era antibiotic.
In 1943, it was discovered in the US since Russian microbiologist Selman
Abraham Waksman (1888-1973), streptomycin, an important antibiotic that
proves to be a powerful therapeutic coverage against tuberculosis.
Also in 1943 in Sardinia some time Professor Giuseppe Brotzu (3), director
of the Institute of Hygiene, University of Cagliari, walking notes often
putrid stain that extends to the sea about 300 meters from the drain and
sewer, then disappears.
The scholar questions cause of the phenomenon and starts with his
assistants microscopic examinations of water samples taken until it finds
impressive finds of salmonella that are not surprising, however, since the
19. Raimondo Villano
31
scientist in recent years typhoid are endemic in Sardinia and putrid waters
are the natural environment for the development of these deadly bacteria.
The attention of Brotzu is attracted, however, by the discovery of molds
that are abundantly developed after 'seeded' the water in a suitable culture
medium. There is the Cephalosporium acremonium, fungus belonging to
the family Sporophorinaceae active in laboratory experiments 'in vitro' not
only against typhoid bacilli and paratyphoid but also against those of
cholera, plague and brucellosis.
Therefore, the fungus inhibits the development of bacteria.
For some distance the sea water is dark and polluted by the putrid waters,
teeming with salmonella; the fungus, then, develops in amounts sufficient
to defeat the bacterium and to 'clean up' the water. Brotzu immediately
clear that the discovery opens new avenues for the treatment of diseases
considered until now highly dangerous. Experiments 'in vitro' goes to those
animals with increasingly positive results that lead him to start human
trials, some patients suffering from typhoid fever and staph infections
receive orally a small dose of culture filtrate of Cephalosporium
acremonium and, within a couple of days, all patients guaritscono. The
great significance of this finding is evident and appears also necessary to
develop research means wider.
In 1949 Giuseppe Brotzu sends in London Officer of Health Professor
Blyth Brooke, known at the time of the Allied occupation of Sardinia, a
copy of a book in which he summed up his studies and his experiences on
the Cephalosporium acremonium. This publication, passed unnoticed in
Italy, aroused the attention of the Health Officer English physician who,
from a culture sample mold sent to him by Brotzu, does start trials in
England under the direction of Sir Howard Florey, who with Fleming and
Chain has already worked on penicillin. This leads, as well, to the
discovery of three new antibiotics, depending on the action, they are called
cephalosporin-type 'p', 'No' and 'c': the first two antibiotics are active
against Gram-positive bacteria and Gram negative while the cephalosporin
'c' is a great replacement of penicillin, being indifferent to the action of
penicillinase. The production of cephalosporins, increasingly effective and
active, in the years represent a real revolution in the therapy of infectious
diseases(3)

In 1952 the University of Edinburgh, where he was rector, Fleming takes
stock of its achievements, noting that "the history of penicillin has
something of romance and helps to explain the weight of fate, luck, fate or
destiny, as you want to call, in the career of every person: nature has
created penicillin; I have just found it! (4). "
At the end of the Second World War the Director of the Institute of Health
scientist and chemist Domenico Marotta (1886-1974) decided to create in
Rome a research center linked to the integrated processes of manufacture of
penicillin, as part of the aid earmarked for the realization of post-war
reconstruction.
The decision was made following an opinion from Ernst Chain, the Nobel
Prize in 1945 for discoveries about the chemistry of penicillin, then called
by Marotta in Italy as a crucial figure in the development of the project for
the state production of the antibiotic.
Ernst Chain in 1948 is put at the head of the International Centre for
Chemical Microbiological created by Domenico Marotta at Istitito
Superiore di Sanità in Rome and manages both the pilot plant where we
study the fermentation for the production of antibiotics is the penicillin
factory, among the largest in Europe, which has been operating since 1951
within the Institute itself.
The construction of this plant, among other things, is an event of extreme
importance, as it enables Italy to carve out a significant slice of autonomy
in a world scenario of industrial sector in which the powers are at the top
and US English.
So, thanks to the initiative of Domenico Marotta and the role of Ernst
Chain, who had contacts with the Soviet Union and with other countries of
the Soviet bloc, Italy becomes a focal point for innovation and the
development of industry Pharmaceutical International, in a world divided
by the Cold War and in which penicillin had already assumed a role that
goes far beyond that of a therapy.
