Bettany Hughes

A journey through the Mediterranean is not only inspiring and stimulating, it is also humbling. The men and women who created antique treasures for us to marvel at had to deal with plague, genocide, a world without writing, iron tools, or penicillin - and yet they made something extraordinary of their life and times.

Tom Wolfe

Once you have speech, you don't have to wait for natural selection! If you want more strength, you build a stealth bomber; if you don't like bacteria, you invent penicillin; if you want to communicate faster, you invent the Internet. Once speech evolved, all of human life changed.

American Journalist

James Buchan

The truth is, of course, that history is not completed in modern commerce any more than philosophy is perfected in political economy. In other words, there is nothing timeless or God-given about filling stations and penicillin and plastic bags.

British Novelist

Howard Florey

Perhaps the most useful lesson which has come out of the work on penicillin has been the demonstration that success in this field depends on the development and coordinated use of technical methods.

Australian Scientist

Corbin Bernsen

American Actor

Nicola Sturgeon

Scotland almost invented the modern world. I mean, all of these televisions, telephones, penicillin, we all - all of these things were invented in Scotland.

Scottish Politician

Alok Sharma

From the radio and the world wide web, to the steam engine and penicillin, for generations the U.K. has been a world-leader in science and research.

British Politician

Robert Robinson

I have never discovered a penicillin, and I have not worked in the mines where ores of the more Nobeliferous metals are to be found.

British Scientist

Katherine Dunn

Prior to penicillin and medical research, death was an everyday occurrence. It was intimate.

American Novelist

I'm recovering from a cold. I'm so full of penicillin that, if I sneeze, I'll cure someone.

British Comedian

Used specifically for treating certain bacterial infections, not viruses.

It’s a natural product sourced from a specific type of fungus.

Biological Source

Penicillin allergies are among the most common drug allergies.

Penicillin was found by chance, changing the way we think of mold.

Specific Strains

Penicillin is a secondary metabolite of the mold, not its primary output.

Substance Production
