Q

Properties of an Ideal Antimicrobial Agent:

A

Selective toxicity:
Broad spectrum:
Bactericidal agents
Diffusible
bacteria do not develop resistance to it

17
Q

define Broad spectrum:

A

affect wide variety of bacteria

18
Q

Bactericidal agents

A

killing better than inhibit

19
Q

Diffusible

A

into distant area with slow rate of excretion

20
Q

selective toxicity

A

harmful to the parasite without ben=ing harmful to the host

21
Q

mechanisms of action of chemotherapeutics drugs

A

inhibit the metabolic channels or a structure present in microbe

22
Q

what is the ideal point of attack by selective toxic agents

A

cell wall

23
Q

drugs that inhibit cell wall synthesis

A

B lactims drugs

24
Q

ex of B lactims drugs

A

penicillin, methicillin and cephalosporins

25
Q

what is the importance of vancomycin

A

used in tratment of B-lactam resistant stephylococcal infections (MRSA)

26
Q

inhibit peptidoglycan synthesis

A

vancomycin q

27
Q

why certain drugs inhibits bactreial protein synthesis without inhibits human

A

differences between human and bacterial ribosomes in human it is 80 and bacteria it is 70

28
Q

these drugs act on what ribosome erythromycin
chloramphenicol

A

acto on 50s

29
Q

these drugs act on what ribosome?
amino glycosides (gentamicin and amikin)
tetracycline

A

act on 30

30
Q

sulphonoamides

A

inhibits folic acids synthesis

31
Q

the mechanisms bacteria can develop resistance to drugs

A

production of enzymes
synthesis modified targets

32
Q

inactivate penicilin and cephalosporing

A

B lactimase

33
Q

inhibition of bacterial nucleic acid synthesis

A

Quinolones
Rifampicin

34
Q

what is the function of Quinolones
and how ?

A

inhibit DNA synthesis
by blocking DNA gyrase

35
Q

what is the function of Rifampcin
and how ?

A

inhibit RNA synthesis
by blocking RNA polymerase
