Antibiotic treatment and susceptibility testing [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Pathology, 2005
A 60 year old tale The concept of attacking invading microorganisms without harming the host was first introduced by Paul Ehrlich. In 1910 he discovered “salvarsan”, which he announced as a magic bullet for the treatment of syphilis. Penicillin, produced by the fungus, Penicillium notatum , was first discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928, purified ...
