The Strange Case of BeriBeriThe Strange Case of BeriBeri In 1887 a strange nerve disease attacked the people in the Dutch In 1887 a strange nerve disease attacked the people in the Dutch
East Indies. The disease was beriberi. Symptoms of the disease East Indies. The disease was beriberi. Symptoms of the disease included weakness and loss of appetite, victims often died of included weakness and loss of appetite, victims often died of heart failure. Scientists thought the disease might be caused by heart failure. Scientists thought the disease might be caused by bacteria. They injected chickens with bacteria from the blood of bacteria. They injected chickens with bacteria from the blood of patients with beriberi. The injected chickens became sick. patients with beriberi. The injected chickens became sick. However, so did a group of chickens that were not injected with However, so did a group of chickens that were not injected with bacteria.bacteria.

Before the experiment, all the chickens had eaten whole-grain rice, but experiment, all the chickens had eaten whole-grain rice, but during the experiment, the chickens were fed polished rice.

How Penicillin Was DiscoveredHow Penicillin Was Discovered In 1928, Sir Alexander Fleming was studying Staphylococcus In 1928, Sir Alexander Fleming was studying Staphylococcus
bacteria growing in culture dishes. He noticed that a mold called bacteria growing in culture dishes. He noticed that a mold called Penicillium was also growing in some of the dishes. A clear area Penicillium was also growing in some of the dishes. A clear area existed around the mold because all the bacteria that had grown in existed around the mold because all the bacteria that had grown in this area had died. In the culture dishes without the mold, no clear this area had died. In the culture dishes without the mold, no clear areas were present.areas were present.
Fleming hypothesized that the mold must be producing a chemical Fleming hypothesized that the mold must be producing a chemical that killed the bacteria. He decided to isolate this substance and test that killed the bacteria. He decided to isolate this substance and test it to see if it would kill bacteria. Fleming transferred the mold to a it to see if it would kill bacteria. Fleming transferred the mold to a nutrient broth solution. This solution contained all the materials the nutrient broth solution. This solution contained all the materials the mold needed to grow. After the mold grew, he removed it from the mold needed to grow. After the mold grew, he removed it from the nutruient broth. Fleming then added the nutrient broth in which the nutruient broth. Fleming then added the nutrient broth in which the mold had grown to a culture of bacteria. He observed that the mold had grown to a culture of bacteria. He observed that the bacteria died. bacteria died.
