Alexender Flheming
What experiments lead to the discovery of penicillin?
Alexander Fleming who discovered penicillin. He was by accident kept a Staphylococcus bacterial plate open which was contaminated by a fungus. What he later noticed strikingly was an area of inhibition of the grown bacteria due to this fungus contamination! Fleming later concluded a chemical released from the fungus inhibited bacterial growth, by this he discovered penicillin!
Does penicillin have sulfur in it?
Yes, penicillin contains sulfur in its chemical structure. The sulfur atom is essential for penicillin to exert its antimicrobial properties against certain bacteria.
What type of chemical will allow come bacteria to be resistant to many penicillin's?
penicillinase
Certain bacteria produce a chemical that makes them resistant to penicillin since these bacteria reproduce asexually they usually produce offspring that?
Carry the same resistance to penicillin as the parent bacteria. This resistance is usually conferred through genetic mutations or acquisition of resistance genes, allowing the offspring bacteria to withstand the effects of penicillin.
When was pepper discovered?
Probably by some chemical scientist. Otherwise, i don't have a clue.
What is penicillin and what is used for?
Penicillin is a bactericidal antibiotic drug.Bactericidal Antibiotics are chemical substances which are produced by microorganisms like bacteria, mould, fungi, and kill other microorganisms. Penicillin can be used for curing sore throat, bronchitis, pneumonia and rheumatic fever.
Who was the first scientist who discovered chemical and physical processes?
Unknown; the knowledge of the chemical and physical processes are very old.
What does penacilen contain?
Penicillin is an antibiotic drug that contains a beta-lactam ring in its chemical structure. This ring is essential for penicillin's antimicrobial activity as it interferes with the formation of bacterial cell walls, ultimately leading to the death of the bacteria. Penicillin is effective against a wide range of bacteria, making it one of the most commonly prescribed antibiotics.
What was Fleming's hypothesis?
Fleming's hypothesis was that the Penicillium produce a chemical that can kill ... Alexander Fleming was a scientist, born near Darvel in Ayrshire, Scotland.
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.
What chemical is produced by fungi that prevents bacteria from growing?
Fungi produce compounds called antibiotics to prevent the growth of bacteria. One example is penicillin, which is produced by the fungus Penicillium. These antibiotics inhibit the growth of bacteria by interfering with their cell wall formation or protein synthesis.
