Alexander Fleming (born August 6, 1881, Ayrshire, Scotland—died March 11, 1955, London, England)
is Scottish bacteriologist best known for his discovery of penicillin. He was the seventh of eight children
of a Scottish hill farmer (third of four children from the farmer‘s second wife). He began his elementary
schooling at Loudoun Moor and then moved on to a larger school at Darvel before enrolling in
Kilmarnock Academy in 1894. In 1895, he moved to London to live with his elder brother Thomas (who
worked as an oculist) and completed his basic education at Regent Street Polytechnic.
Fleming began his medical studies at St. Mary‘s Hospital Medical School in 1901, funded by a
scholarship and a legacy from his uncle. There he won the 1908 gold medal as top medical student at the
University of London. Between 1909 and 1914 Fleming established a successful private practice as a
venereologist, and in 1915 he married Sarah Marion McElroy, an Irish nurse. Fleming‘s son, Robert,
born in 1924, followed his father into medicine.
In November 1921 Fleming discovered lysozyme, an enzyme present in body fluids such as saliva and
tears that has a mild antiseptic effect. That was the first of his major discoveries. It came about when he
had a cold and a drop of his nasal mucus fell onto a culture plate of bacteria. Realizing that his mucus
might have an effect on bacterial growth, he mixed the mucus into the culture and a few weeks later saw
signs of the bacteria‘s having been dissolved.
On September 3, 1928, shortly after his appointment as professor of bacteriology, Fleming noticed that a
culture plate of Staphylococcus aureus he had been working on had become contaminated by a fungus. A
mold, later identified as Penicillium notatum, had inhibited the growth of the bacteria. He at first called
the substance ―mould juice‖ and then ―penicillin‖. Fleming decided to investigate further, because he
thought that he had found an enzyme more potent than lysozyme. In fact, it was not an enzyme but an
antibiotic—one of the first to be discovered.
For the last decade of his life, Fleming was feted universally for his discovery of penicillin and acted as a
world ambassador for medicine and science. Initially a shy uncommunicative man and a poor lecturer, he
blossomed under the attention he received, becoming one of the world‘s best-known scientists.
