What are the 3 methods PCN kill bacteria?
|
1) PBPs in the periplasmic space bind the PCN - allows PCN to accumulate in bacteria.
2) PCN inhibits transpeptidases - interferes with "mesh" formation of cell wall - kills cell 3) PCH stims autolysins - PCN keeps autolysins active which damages the cell wall and lyses the bacteria |
|
What are the different types of PCN?
|
1st gen - Narrow spectrum (beta lactamase sensitive) - Pen G/V
2nd gen - beta-lactmase resistant - Methicillin, Dicloxacillin, Oxacillin, Cloxacillin, Nafcillin, Flucloxacillin - good for bacteria that have resistance from beta lactams. 3rd gen - Broad spectrum - Ampicillin (Listeria), Amoxicillin (dental prophylaxis) - good for G +/- 4th gen - extended spectrum - Carbenicillin, piperacillin, ticarcillin - antipseudomonal (pseudomonas aerudinosa) - always use in combo with aminoglycoside or cipro |
|
What do the cephalosporin generations treat?
|
1st - Proteus, E. Coli, Klebsiella (PLUS G+) - PECK
