Answer: They were able to make penicillin in larger quantities.

Explanation: The scottish bacteriologist Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in the year of 1928. During World War II it became especially important because of high demand to supply the army, due to the fact that when there is war ordinary economies are placed on hold and production is able to continue regardless of the cost.
