The Drugs Revolution and the Development of Penicillin

Prevention and Cure Prevention Germ theory Vaccinations Cure Koch discovered that he could stain bacteria Development of ‘magic bullets’ For example - Salvarsan 606 and Prontosil Prevention Germ theory Vaccinations Smallpox 1906 Tuberculosis 1913 Diphtheria

Penicillin 1928 – Alexander Fleming discovers mould which kills germs – penicillin. 1929 – Fleming publishes an article on penicillin.

Chain and Florey 1937 – Chain and Florey do research on penicillin. 1940 – Experiment on mice. 1941 – successful tests on humans.

Factors

Government 1939 - British government fund Florey’s research 1942 – U.S. government fund production of penicillin. 1944 – mass production

Individuals Alexander Fleming Howard Florey Ernst Chain Research Teams

War German bombing stopped Florey and Chain being able to mass produce penicillin in Britain. America was not interested in penicillin until she entered the war in 1941. 1945 American Army using 2 million doses of penicillin a month.

Other Factors Technology Scientific experiment Industry Communications Chance
