What's the antimicrobial action of Bacitracin drugs?
|
It inhibits cell wall by inhibiting the transport of the wall's bricks into the cell namely peptidoglycan precursors
|
|
What three groups of drugs are highly resistant to Betalactamases?

|
Why are Beta-lactam drugs only effective against growing bacteria?
|
Because cell wall is only synthesized during bacterial growth and since cell wall is the target of the drugs, the drugs can't work unless the cell wall is being built.
|

What are the four ways in which bacteria fight antimicrobials?
|
Drug-inactivating enzymes, alteration in target molecules, decreased uptake of the drug, increased elimination of the drug.
|

By having more than one target, have multiple binding sites on a single target, or use multiple drugs at once.
