Alexander Fleming first revealed to the public his discovery - penicillin
September 13, 1929
The history of penicillin began back in the 19th century. In 1896, the Italian doctor B. Gosio brought out the world's first antibiotic, most likely penicillin, but it was not applied and was forgotten.September 13, 1929
Alexander Fleming
In 1913, American scientists W. Alsberg and O.Blek received penicillinic acid, a penicillium fungus, which possesses antimicrobial properties from the fungus of the genus Penicillium. But the war interrupted their research.
In 1928, the English scientist bacteriologist Alexander Fleming conducted the usual experience of studying the protection of the human body from infectious diseases. As a result, quite by accident, he deduced that ordinary mold synthesizes a substance that destroys the pathogens of the infection, and discovered a molecule called penicillin.
September 13, 1929 at a meeting of the Medical Research Club at the University of London, Alexander Fleming first showed the public his discovery - penicillin.
Fleming's report "The culture of penicillin" did not arouse much interest among the listeners. Even after the publication of the article did not cause the doctors no enthusiasm. And all because penicillin was a very unstable substance. It was destroyed already with short-term storage.
In the 1930s, scientists tried to improve the effectiveness of penicillin, but only in 1938, scientists at Oxford University Howard Flory and Ernest Cheyne isolated a pure form of penicillin.
Because of the great need for medicines during the Second World War, already in 1943 the production of this antibiotic began on a large scale.
And in 1945 Fleming, Flory and Chain received the Nobel Prize for their discovery.
Penicillin has become an indispensable medicine and saved the lives of many people.
Today IT workers celebrate an unofficial holiday programmers and computer scientists, celebrated on the 256th day of the year.

Often, the word “programming” and everything related with it, is associated by an ordinary person, only with a personal computer, but this is not so. Virtually every electronic device - from the remote control to complex industrial machines with program control - passed through the hands of programmers.
Every hour we are confronted with the results of the labors of what the programmer did. Whether we watch TV, listen to the radio, talk on the phone - we use what the programmer has created. Perhaps no other profession covers so wide a sphere of our life.
