Describe the 4 major subtypes of beta lactam antibiotics.

Answer

Better lactam antibiotics are antibiotics used in treatment of of severe infection caused by Bacteria.

Beta lactam antibiotics contain beta lactam ring in their molecular structure.

The major subtypes of Beta lactam antibiotics include : Penicillin, cephalosporins, monobactams and carbapenems.

Explanation:

Penicillin : 1) Bind to Penicillin binding sites (PBS)

2) they are vulnerable to The enzyme penicillinase and other b-lactamase

3 ) Penicillin occurs naturally and can also be synthesized

Cephalosporins : 1) they also bind to Penicillin binding sites too

2) just like penicillin, they are vulnerable to B-LACTAMASE, unlike penicillin, they are not vulnerable to penicillinase

Monobactams:

1) binds only to PBP3 but binds weakly to other BPPs

2) is resistant to B-LACTAMASE but is inactivated by ESBLs (Extended spectrum Beta lactamASE ).

Carbapenems :

1) They bind PBPs of most bacteria

2) they are resistant to most B- Lactamase

measuring physical properties lab reportinstructions: in the physical properties lab, you will test the physical properties of different building materials in order to pick the appropriate materials for a new home in tiny world. record your observations and test measurements in the lab report below. youwill submit your completed report.name and title: lyric lawton, mr.herbert, 10/13/17, physical properties lab. objective(s): i need to parvus build his house out of the right material, so he will stay cool in the mountains.hypothesis: if we use wood to build the roof of the house, then the temperature inside the house will remain cooler.if we use clay brick to build the walls and floors of the house, then the temperature inside the house will remain cooler.if we use aluminium to bring electricity into the home, then it will allow electricity to flow into the home at a faster rate.if we use iron to construct the latches on the windows and doors, then the magnetism will keep the latches secure.
