Exploding bacteria with penicillin

The video shows bacterial cells on the left panel suddenly explode when penicillin is added because the pressure inside the cells increases, as penicillin inhibits synthesis of the bacterial cell wall. Healthy bacterial cells growing in the absence of penicillin are seen on the right.

Underneath that microscope is one of the biggest breakthroughs in human history. Fleming must have been shitting himself.

Ernest Duchesne (30 May 1874 – 12 April 1912) was a French physician who noted molds kill bacteria. He made this discovery 32 years before Alexander Fleming discovered the antibiotic properties of penicillin, but his research went unnoticed. then Flemming read his thesis 32 years after, and descovered penicillin

My only question is why they put sad music on such  a serious matter

[sohfihamid]

I kinda enjoy watching the exploding bacteria!

[xKalphax]

This made my skin crawl, does that mean I have bacteria crawling on me?

You're laughing, the bacteria are exploding and you're laughing.

That moment when you're allergic to penicillin :')

This comment section is filled with middle aged science teachers and tbh I'm not mad about that.

this video was both meaningful and touching, made me understand the fleetingness and fragility of our own mortality. truly touching ICaMB NCL... as my artistic and scientific inspiration eminem would say 'my name is... my name is.... my name is... chicka chicka slim shady'

This makes me feel sad somehow like it's an E. Coli genocide in an E. Colic Armenian lab.

That’s why I don’t wash my dishes. I hope you get the reference.

Love how nothing happened on the right side

You shouldn't have done that. He was just a boy. He could have had fun sometime.

What happened to the citizens of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945:

How did you do this imaging? I am a science student and interested in doing something similar.
Do you have a protocol or paper on it?

[scalp_rat]

This better be what the antibiotics are doing to my ear infection right now. This is for inspirational viewing

[ralfdonhill]

Make a video of how salt acts on streptococci

[peternufc]

My worst fear microorganisms they can be deadly but are ni one invisible 🤢

[marcsanchez]

Why and how did this happen? (Serious question)
