G+
VREF
MRSA
What microorganism is halted (low concentration) or killed (high concentration) by Mupirocin?
MRSA, especially nasal MRSA
Of the DNA Replication Inhibitors, what microorganisms are killed by…

Ciprofloxacin and Moxifloxacin (Quinolones)»_space; G- enteric baccili, some G+, and P. aeruginosa
Metronidazole (Nitroimidazole)»_space; Anaerobic (Bacteroides) and Protozoa (trichomoniasis and amebiasis)
Of the RNA synthesis inhibitors, what microorganism is killed by Rifampin?
Broad spectrum
Other antibiotics not otherwise classified that halt or kill Tuberculosis are?
Ethambutol (static)

Of the antifungals whic are cidal and which are static... Amphotericin B (polyene) Nystatin (polyene) Fluconazole & Ketoconazole (azole) Caspofungin (echinocadin) Flucytosine
Amphotericin B (polyene) >> cidal Nystatin (polyene) >> usually static, cidal at high doses Fluconazole & Ketoconazole (azole) >> static Caspofungin (echinocadin) >> cidal Flucytosine >> static and cidal
Of the antifungals, what microorganisms are halted or killed by…
Fluconazole & Ketoconazole
Caspofungin
Fluconazole & Ketoconazole»_space; oral cadidiasis aka thrush, mycoses, tinea versicolor
Caspofungin»_space; aspergillus candida
What are the contraindications of... Isoniazid? Penicillins? Vancomycin? Cycloserine? Bacitracin? Polymyxin B? Streptomycin? Gentamycin? Tetracycline & Doxycycline? Tigecycline? Chloramphenicol? Amphotericin B? Nystatin? Fluconazole & Ketoconazole?
isoniazid»_space; Liver and neurotoxic
Penicillins»_space; allergy
Vancomycin»_space; CN VII and renal toxic
Cycloserine»_space; toxic
Bacitracin»_space; toxic
Polymyxin B»_space; toxic when systemic
Streptomycin and Gentamycin»_space; CN VIII and renal toxic
Tetracycline, Doxycycline, and Tigecycline»_space; changes in GI flora and diarrhea
Chloramphenicol»_space; Lethal, aplastic anemia (rare) => not widely used

What is the mechanism for…
Sulfanilamide?
Trimethoprim?
Isoniazid?
Sulfanilamide»_space; competitively inhibits PABA in folic acid production
Trimethoprim»_space; inhibits DHF reductase
Isoniazid»_space; interpheres with mycolic acid synthesis
What is the mechanism for Penicillins, Cephalosporins, and B-lactams?
Binds to an inactivates PBP (transpeptidase responsible for peptidoglycan cross-linking)
Requires growth conditions
Uncouples control of autolysins
Of the Glycopeptides, what is the mechanism for…
Vancomycin?
Cycloserine?
Bacitracin?
Vancomycin»_space; Binds to peptidoglycan precursors, May also permeabilize protoplasts and inhibit RNA synthesis
Cycloserine»_space; Inhibits D-ala conversions in cell wall formation
Bacitracin»_space; Inactivates phosphatase that regenerates active carrier lipid in murein (peptidoglycan) precursor synthesis
What is the mechansims for Polymyxin B?
Binds to LPS (negatively charged) then to cytoplasmic membrane phospholipids => membrane leakage
Of the Aminogycosides, what microorganisms are killed by…
Streptomycin»_space;
Gentamycin»_space;
both inhibit the 30S function
at high concentration, strep inhibits initiation complex
gentamycin binds to more than one ribosome protein, so it is not a single step inhibition
What is the mechanism for tetracyclines?
blocks 30S
Of the 50S inhibitors, what is the mechanism of... Erythromycin Azithromycin Chloramphenicol Clindamycin Sreptogramins Note the mechanisms are all similar
basically all block chain elongation
