\"\"Tambi\u00e9n las sustancias qu\u00edmicas son habitualmente bautizadas con el nombre de alguno de sus descubridores. Sin embargo, en ocasiones los investigadores no personalizan su descubrimiento y prefieren bautizarlo haciendo menci\u00f3n a otra persona que, por distintas circunstancias, se relacionan con el mismo, ya sea por agradecimiento a su aportaci\u00f3n a la ciencia o la historia en general, o por haber intervenido de manera directa o indirecta en el descubrimiento o invento en cuesti\u00f3n, a\u00fan siendo un personaje desconocido y ajeno al campo de la ciencia o la Historia. Uno de los t\u00e9rminos que se ajusta a esta descripci\u00f3n es el ep\u00f3nimo\u00a0bacitracina<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n


\nMargaret Tracy
\n<\/strong>En junio de 1943, una ni\u00f1a de 7 a\u00f1os llamada Margaret Tracy, ingres\u00f3 en la sala de urgencias del Hospital Presbiteriano de Columbia de la ciudad de Nueva York, pues la hab\u00eda atropellado un coche, ocasion\u00e1ndole una fractura abierta en la tibia. De esta herida se tom\u00f3 una muestra y en el an\u00e1lisis microbiol\u00f3gico inicial se determin\u00f3 a presencia de\u00a0Staphylococus<\/em>aureus<\/em>. Sin embargo, a su vez otras muestras fueron enviadas al laboratorio de bacteriolog\u00eda, donde su directora, Balbina Jonson, descubri\u00f3 que el\u00a0<\/span>Staphylococcus<\/em>aureus<\/em>\u00a0visto en el examen inicial microsc\u00f3pico hab\u00eda desaparecido de la noche a la ma\u00f1ana.<\/span><\/p>\n

Con la ayuda de Fran L. Meleney y H. Anker, consiguieron aislar a partir de una muestra de la herida una cepade un bacilo muy activo frente a\u00a0S. Aureus<\/em>, que denominaron \u201cTracy I\u201d. Tras filtrar el caldo de cultivo se detect\u00f3 la presencia de un potente antibi\u00f3tico; a este antibi\u00f3tico le dieron el nombre de Bacitracina, de la combinaci\u00f3n del t\u00e9rmino \u201cbacilo\u201d y \u201ctracy\u201d, apellido de esta ni\u00f1a.<\/p>\n

Bacitracina
\n<\/strong>Se trata de un antibi\u00f3tico obtenido a partir del\u00a0Bacillus<\/em>licheniformis<\/em>\u00a0o\u00a0<\/span>subtilis<\/em>, con actividad frente a bacterias grampositivas. De hecho est\u00e1 constituido por una mezcla de polip\u00e9ptidos (bacitracina A, B y C), aunque la m\u00e1s activa y utilizada es la A.<\/span><\/p>\n

Su actividad es parecida a la de la penicilina y debido a su nefrotoxicidadse reserva exclusivamente para aplicaciones locales, estando presente en diferentes especialidades farmac\u00e9uticas de uso t\u00f3pico.<\/p>\n
