Sir Alexander Fleming was one of many scientists whose work gave the world pencillin. In a serendipitous turn of events, the changing temperatures and a errant spore that landed in a culture dish produced a blue mold that filled the rest of the dish and created what Fleming described as a halo around the staphylococcus bacteria. Fleming corrected theorized that the substance had slowed the growth of the bacteria.
