The discovery of penicillin is usually attributed to a Scottish scientist Sir Alexander Fleming in 1928, though others had earlier noted the antibacterial effects of Penicillium. The development of penicillin for use as a medicine is attributed to the Australian Nobel Laureate Howard Walter Florey.
