Talk:Penicillium glaucum

Odd contradictions in this page

As is, this page is confusing. P. glaucum referred to a huge number of molds, and the last lines claim "glaucum" is rejected as an individual Penicillium name now and blue cheese molds are all roqueforti, but then there are differentiations made between it and roqueforti all over this article and most other articles on the cheeses themselves and on the Penicillium page. Assuming the name is rejected for a single mold species, presumably somebody would have analyzed which ones are used and determined a difference? These are food products and the contents tend to be scrutinized very heavily, especially when a live biological culture is involved. I've no idea where to track down the appropriate analyses of what types are used short of contacting cheese manufacturers for more detailed info.
In addition to that and in light of P. glaucum being used to refer to almost anything when major research on antibiotic properties were beginning, the information about researches doesn't seem to fit very well here and doesn't match what is available on History of penicillin. Finally the blurb about Duchesne seems out of place since from what I can gather from his page and the penicillin history there were valid reasons for his dissertation being ignored at the time and nobody is even certain he was working with a Penicillium based on the activity he discovered, since when penicillin itself was finally isolated it did not cure typhoid like whatever mold Duchesne was injecting into his test animals did.
