Which bread does penicillin grow on?
Penicillin was discovered as a product of the mold Penicillium notatum. This mold is generally found on the skin of oranges and lemons and Alexander Fleming was eating an orange and plating bacteria at the same time. Some mold contaminated the culture dish and when it was incubated, zones of inhibition appeared around the mold colonies. This was investigated and penicillin was discovered! This mold is also commonly found on stale bread.
Where does penicillin fungi come from?
Penicillin is produced by certain types of fungi, specifically Penicillium molds. These molds can be found in the environment, such as in soil or decaying organic matter. Penicillin was first discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928 when he observed its antibiotic properties.
What is the another name of penicillin acylase?
Penicillin acylase is also known as penicillin G acylase or penicillin amidase.
What are positive uses for fungus?
Fungi have many positive uses, such as in food production (e.g., bread, cheese, and fermented beverages), bioremediation (cleaning up pollutants), medicine (e.g., antibiotics like penicillin), and biofuel production. Fungi are also important in the ecosystem for breaking down organic matter and recycling nutrients.
Does penicillin reproduce by binary fission?
No. Penicillin is a chemical substance. It does not reproduce.
How do you turn bread mold in penicillin?
Bread mold does not turn into penicillin. Bread mold makes penicillin as aby-product of its metabolic processes. Penicillin is manufactured by growing bread mould in a nutrient and stripping off the produced penicillin in the same manner that alcohol is made by yeast and the alcohol recovered.
Can penicillin grow on bread?

Penicillin is produced by the Penicillium notatum fungi. Penicillin is one of the earliest discovered and widely used antibiotics. Antibiotics are natural substances that are released by bacteria and fungi into the their environment to inhibit the growth of other microbes, so it is biological warfare on a microscopic scale.
