Q

What is the mechanism action of penicillin

A

It prevents peptidoglycan cross links in final stage of the pathway of cell wall forming (transpeptidase binding)

Q

How do we evade beta lactamase?

A

1 use non beta-lactam agent
2 use B-lactam+B-lactamase inhibitors(بلطجي)
3 steric inhibiton (large sidechains/cephalosporins)

Q

What is the difference between old and new definitions of antibiotic?

A

The new produced wholly or partially by chemical synthesis

17
Q

What is super infection

And what is pre infiction

A

Overgrowth one type of microbes in response yo antibiotic(candida-yeast)
Pre=prophylaxis give drug before infection can occur

18
Q

What are the sources of antibiotecs

A

1-natural
2-synthesis
3-semis-synthesis

19
Q

What is the source of the following…
Penicillin
Cephalosporins
Chloramphenicol

A

Semi-synthesis = penicillin/cephalosporins

Synthetic=chloramphenicol

20
Q

What are the sources of antibiotics?(from microbes)

A

G+ve rods
Fungi
Actinomycetes

21
Q

Give examples for antibacterial
Broad spectrum
Narrow spectrum

A
Broad = tetra cyclines
Narrow = penicillin/isoniazid(myco)
22
Q

Bacteriostatic activity

A

The level that inhibits growth of an organism

23
Q

MIC?

A

Lowest concentration that inhibits growth of an organism

24
Q

MBC

A

Lowest concentration that kills 99.9% of bacteria

25
Bacteriostatic MO?
``` Erythromycin Lincomycin Fusidic acid Tetracyclines Chloramphenicol Sulfanoamides ```
26
Which bacteria has the highest amount of peptidoglycan in cell wall
G+ve 50%
27
What is the main substance to attack of vancomycin?
D-alanine amino acid connection | D-alanyle-D-alanine
28
The precursors in peptidoglycan are synthesized in———
Cytoplasm
29
D-cycloserine affect on cellwall
Interferes with bacterial cell wall synthesis by competitively inhibiting L-alanine racemiase and D-alanine ligase
30
How do precursors cross cell membrane?
By binding with lipid carrier molecules (bactoprenol)
31
The work of Transglycolase Transpeptidase
=polymerize glycan chains | =Catalyses peptide cross linking
32
Where does glycopeptide antibiotic works?
Only in G+ve bacteria
33
What are transpeptidases
catalyze cross linking
34
Why penicillin G can not be used orally
Because stomach acid will disrupt it
35
Penicillinase resistant penicillin 3 examples
Methicillin (the first) Oxacillin Nafcillin
36
Major clinical problem in many parts of the word…..
Staphylococci
37
Staphylococcal resistance penicillins
Methicillin and the legendary cloxacillin
38
Treat P.aeruginosa by
Jew flattener Cabencillin , ticarcillin Pipercillin , azlocillin
39
Mycobacteria antibiotics
Ethambutol and isoniazid
