Discovery of lysozymesIn 1922,sir Alexander had a cold
when he was working with Petri dishes with bacteria on them. He accidentally sneezed on one of the dishes and it was sprayed with mucus. He was going to remove it, but he was curious to see what would happen. So he left the mucus on the dish and he later examined it. Alec discovered the mucus had dissolved the bacteria and killed it. Sir Alexander tried the same experiment with tears. He studied the human and animal samples and all the samples had the bacteria-killing substance. He called the substance a lysozyme.
