How did science and technology develop penicillin?
because of Alexander Fleming making a chance discovery Florey and chain were able to make more developments on this new antibacterial fungus-which is what penicillin actualy is-21 years later with more updated science and technology to define it into a brown powder which could be consumed by humans.
Who discovered soap?
It is recorded that the Babylonians were making soap around 2800 B.C.
When was the quartz first discovered?
Quartz has been mentioned in writings of Pliny the Elder of the Roman era. So the study of quartz dates back to such an early period making it difficult to guess who discovered it. Its most important property of piezoelectricity was discovered by Jacques and Pierre Curie in 1880.
How did the mpemba effect get its name?
The Mpemba effect is named after a Tanzanian high school student Erazo Mpemba, who discovered it in the 60's. His class was making ice cream, where they used boiled milk and cooled it before mixing it in and freezing it. Mpemba wanted room in the freezer for his ice cream, because it was getting full, so he put it in without waiting for the milk to cool. To his surprise, his was frozen first. His teacher laughed at him, but he got help from a visiting professor, and they discovered it was true! :D
How was fiberglass discovered?
Fiberglass was not discovered, it was invented. Plastic resins are often too brittle or two elastic to be usable for many purposes. Glass fiber is very strong and does not stretch but breaks when flexed. By laying out alternating layers of glass fiber oriented in different directions then saturating this glass fiber mesh in plastic resin you create fiberglass, a composite material that is stronger and more durable than either of the materials used to make it. Fiberglass was the first composite material invented. Note: wood is a natural composite material that trees have been making for hundreds of millions of years before there were humans; wood was discovered because it existed before we knew about it.
What Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin by making a study of?
mold novanet
Why was Alexander Fleming so important?
Alexander Fleming was a doctor and bacteriologist who discovered penicillin, receiving the Nobel Prize in 1945.Penicillin was the first antibiotic we ever had. His discovery was accidental but he was able to see the process behind it. He noticed that, on a plate used in Microbiology labs, that there was mold that wasn't supposed to be there. He also noticed that there was space around the mold and the bacteria growing there. The mold was making something that prevented the bacteria from growing any closer.When he studied that clear area, a product made by the mold was what prevented the bacteria from growing. The mold was Penicillin notatum. The product was called penicillin.
Who discovered peniciliin?
Alexander FlemingAlexander Fleming (1881-1955) discovered(not invented) the antibiotic effects of the mold in 1928. He was able to extract the chemicals the mold creates that attacks bacteria.
Does Alexander Fleming deserve the Nobel Prize?
Alexander Fleming got out of making penicillin a medicine to curing a diseases that can have symptoms of mucus and saliva that may have gotten you sick. And the medicine "Penicillin" could cure it but the ? and it helps you get better.He also received many grants from different organizations and some he kept for himself. He also got to travel around the world showing his invention but American inventors got patents for what he didFleming discovered Penicillin by accidentally leaving a dish of Staphylococcus bacteria out uncovered. After a few days, he saw that there was one area of the dish where mold was growing.
Who was credited for making penicillin?
Alexander Fleming. In fact, he founded this fungi completely by mistake and his own scientific control error. Sometimes small mistakes have enormous positive results! Change the world!
How did Alexander Flemming find penicillin?
The mold was growing in one of his experimental bacterial cultures and killing them, ruining the experiment. Others might have thrown it out, he determined what the mold was making that killed bacteria.

What did sir Alexander discovered?
In 1928, Fleming was working on the staphylococcibacteria - the kind that cause boils and sore throats, when, whilst he was examining some old bacterial plates that he noticed a mould had grown on one of his cultures. He saw what he believed was unusual in that some of the colonies of staphylococci that should have been growing near the mould had disappeared. Fleming thought that the mould could be making something that was capable of destroying the bacteria. He did some more experiments and found that this was indeed the case. He cultured the mould by growing it in broth. The mould was later identified as Penicillium notatum which had produced what we now call penicillin.

Has penicillin changed over the years?
Penicillin has not changed over the years from it's invention in 1928. You have developed some derivatives of penicillin, discovered for more than half century ago. You have penicillin V, injection procaine penicillin, injection benzathine penicillin. Then you have semisynthetic penicillins like ampicillin and amoxicillin. Then you have carboxypenicillins like carbenicillin and ureidipenicillins like piperacillin.
How did Columbus's voyage lead to a dispute between Spain and Portugal?
Actually Spain and Portugal wanted the lands Christopher Columbus discovered and would even fight for it. Later Pope Alexander VI settled the problem by making a boundary for Spain and Portugal.
