Introduction Although bacteria is microscopic in size‚ it is largely important in the healthcare field‚ environmental work‚ food preparation‚ as well as many other industries. In particular‚ it is essential that healthcare workers be able to identify the species of bacteria invading a human reservoir in order to prescribe the correct antibiotic that will kill that species. For the purpose of bacteria identification‚ numerous tests have been devised to find out the exact species in question. However

into classes helps in identifying the bacterial species and hence they are classified as gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria based upon their staining techniques. Penicillin is the oldest and the best known antibiotic. Basically‚ it is an antibiotic compound derived from the moulds Penicillium notatum and Penicillin chrysogenum and is active in opposition to gram positive bacteria and few gram negative bacteria. Penicillin turns out to have two rings fused together; one being the β-lactam
