Certain bacteria produce chemicals that damage or disable parts of our bodies. Antibiotics work to kill bacteria.Antibiotics are specific to certain bacteria and disrupt their function. What is an Antibiotic? An antibiotic is a selective poison. It has been chosen so that it will kill the desired bacteria, but not the cells in your body. Each different type of antibiotic affects different bacteria in different ways. For example, an antibiotic might inhibit a bacterias ability to turn glucose into energy, or the bacterias ability to construct its cell wall. Therefore the bacteria dies instead of reproducing. History Although for centuries preparations derived from living matter were applied to wounds to destroy infection, the fact that a microorganism is capable of destroying one of another species was not established until the latter half of the 19th cent. when Pasteur noted the antagonistic effect of other bacteria on the anthrax organism and pointed out that this action might be put to therapeutic use. History Meanwhile the German chemist Paul Ehrlich developed the idea of selective toxicity: that certain chemicals that would be toxic to some organisms, e.g., infectious bacteria, could be killed but not other organisms, e.g., humans. In 1928, Sir Alexander Fleming, a Scottish biologist, observed that Penicillium notatum, a common mold, had destroyed staphylococcus bacteria in culture. History In 1939 the American microbiologist René Dubos demonstrated that a soil bacterium was capable of decomposing the starchl
