}}Agnes J. Quirk (fl. 1920s) was an American bacteriologist, plant pathologist, and inventor.[1] She oversaw the culturing of bacteria in the Laboratory of Plant Pathology at the United States Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Plant Industry.[2] She received a patent[3] for the production of penicillin mold and jelly in 1952.[4]

Life and career

Hired by Erwin Frink Smith, pathologist-in-charge of the Laboratory of Plant Pathology, USDA's Bureau of Plant Industry, Quirk became Smith's assistant in 1901.[5][6] Quirk's research focused on the crown gall oxidation phenomena and culture mediums used in pathogenic analyses, working alongside Nellie A. Brown.[5] Her original job titles at the Laboratory consisted of "laboratory aid" and "scientific assistant".[8]
