ALEXANDER FLEMING


He was born in Scotland on August 6th, 1881. He died at the age of 73 in London, England.
His best-known discovery is the antibiotic substance penicillin from the mold Penicillium notatum in 1928, for which he won the Nobel Prize in Medicine.
In 1999, a newspaper stated: It was a discovery that would change the course of history. The active ingredient which Fleming named penicillin, turned out to be an infection-fighting agent of enormous potency. When it was finally recognised for what it was, the most efficacious life-saving drug in the world, penicillin would alter forever the treatment of bacterial infections.
