Penicillium

concentration of (Mn, Cu, Fe) showed variable sensitivity in growth rate (Table 39, Fig. 49), it was noticed that high concentrations (500 ppm and 1000 ppm) delayed the growth up to 5 days whereas the fungus treated with 500 ppm start to grow at the day 6 and those treated with 1000 ppm start to grow at the 7 day but very slowly growth. P. duclauxii recorded high resistance against different concentrations of (Zn, Pb, Ni, Al) up to 1000 ppm (Table 39, Fig. 49). High concentration 1000 ppm of (Mn, Zn, Ni, Al) couldn’t stopped Penicillium italicum growth (Table 40, Fig. 50). The fungus pigmentation was low or not detected comparing with that of control with different concentration of Zn (Fig. 51). Microscopical examination of this fungus fed with different concentrations of zinc investigated variable sporulation comparing with that of control (Fig. 52). Copper slightly stimulated the growth in concentrations 30 ppm-100 ppm while other concentrations inhibited Penicillium italicum growth and 1000 ppm delayed the fungus growth to 6th day but with a slowly rate (Table 40, Fig.…

research on Penicillium until 1938 when he viewed Fleming’s paper on the mold. Alongside Florey was Doctor Ernst Chain who fought with Florey on who deserved credit for this new drug. During the summer of 1940, Chain and Florey began experiments on fifty mice infected with streptococcus. In this experiment, twenty-five mice were given penicillin and the other twenty-five did not. The results of the experiment showed that the mice given penicillin were cured and the others died a slow, painful…

Mutations of Penicillium notatum When Introduced to Ultraviolet Radiation in Different Environments Introduction DNA is composed of two strands composed of polynucleotides arranged in a double helix formation composed of four nucleotide subunits: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), and cytosine (C). Each base must form a hydrogen bond with its respective compatible base, therefore adenine always bonds with thymine and guanine always bonds with cytosine. DNA is used to…

In the text it states, “Fleming saw a ring around the mold. After some experimentation he noticed that the ring was actually bacteria free and it was a rare spore called Penicillium Notatum.” (Lane 121) This evidence from the text explains that Fleming accidentally left chemicals in his lab and when he arrived home he noticed that there was a ring of mold that was bacteria free and it was a cell called penicillium. That penicillium notatum soon turned into penicillin. After that discovery,…

miracle of penicillin By: joshua baerwald From 8th grade english by: Mrs.Bushke 3/21/2017 Penicillin, created by Alexander Fleming. Was accidentally discovered by Alexander Fleming, a strange fungi was growing on a petri dish. Instead of cleaning it away, he investigated it and discovered that this fungi was keeping the bacteria on the petri dish stay where it was. Alexander fleming looked more into this fungi to only find out that it had properties that would breach the cell walls of…

Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman, 2000) is an obligatory ectoparasite of the honeybee (Apis mellifera L). It caused severe damage to populations of this species world-wide in recent years (Le Conte et al., 2010). The direct negative effect of the Varroa on honeybee has well documented (Weinberg and Madel, 1985; Daly et al., 1988, Wienands and Madel, 1988; Marcangeli et al., 1992; Bowen-Walker and Gunn, 2001; Contzen et al., 2004; Yang and Cox-Foster, 2005; Belaïd and Doumandji, 2010;…

that lucky experience would come years of history, well being, and the general study of the discovery of penicillin. Penicillin is one of the earliest discovered and used medicine. Originally the Penicillium mold, the mold that penicillin is derived from, was discovered by a French medical student, Ernest Duchesne in 1896. But then was re-discovered by Alexander Fleming which it states in the Article “The History of Penicillin”, “Penicillin was re-discovered by bacteriologist…
