Tetracycline’s brand name is Ala Tet while the generic name is tetracyclin. It is considered both a synthetic and a natural antibiotic. The natural portion of this drug is produced by streptomyces. Benjamin Duggar invented this antibiotic in 1945. It is in the classification of polyketides which prevent the introduction of other amino acids into a bacteria’s peptide chain. This is used to treat diseases such as acne, rosacea, and cholera. Its an extremely powerful antibiotic and was found to work well against almost all aerobic bacteria. However, because it is so effective the side effects can be a cause of concern. Complications with breathing, lupus, hepatitis, and tinnitus just to name a few. Tetracycline is taken orally.
Objective The objective of this experiment is to prepare a sample of tetraphenylcyclopentadienone through the aldol condensation of benzil and dibenzyl ketone under a basic environment. Procedure Part A- Aldol Condensation of Tetraphenylcyclopentadienone • In a 100 mL round bottom flask, 0.525 g (0.0025 mol) of benzil and 0.525 g (0.0025 mol) of dibenzyl ketone were mixed with an additional 0.075 g (0.002 mol) of potassium hydroxide pellets in a solution of 10 mL of 95% ethanol, and finally a boiling chip was inserted into the solution. The contents of the mixture were allowed to mix, and while this was occurring, a reflux setup was prepared (as illustrated in Figure 1.A) and the round bottom flask was attached to the setup.

All anti-infection agents utilized as a part of human treatment since the beginning of the anti-infection agents time in the mid 1900s can be partitioned into three unmistakable classifications as indicated by how they were eventually produced on substantial scale. These arrangements take after. Natural products: mixes made specifically by huge scale aging of microscopic organisms or parasites. Semi-synthetic antibacterial: compounds manufactured by chemical synthesis using as starting material a natural product. Fully synthetic antibacterial: exacerbates that are fabricated by completely manufactured courses (Wright, Seiple, and Myers, 2014).
PCP or Phencyclidine is a hallucinogen drug that effects the mind. It has many different names, some of the most common are angel dust, love boat, lovely, crystal, TAC, Hog, and The Sheets. In the 1960 phencyclidine was used as a quick acting anesthetic but had a few side effects so it was discontinued in the 1960s and used solely as a veterinary tranquilizer. It was in the 1970s that it started to get abused. San Francisco was the first city reported to have PCP being abused it was called the peace pill. Since it was inexpensive and easy to make it was often sold as other drugs such as psilocybin, cocaine, amphetamine, LSD, and Synthetic THC.

The purpose of this paper is to research any connection of depression with the drug Accutane. First before we dive into the subject lets explain what Accutane is. Accutane is a last resort for acne treatment and if any women are pregnant or wanting to get pregnant should not use this drug as it is known to cause birth defects. And as the topic says Accutane has been linked to mental depression among teenagers and sometimes leading to suicide(http://healthpsych.psy.vanderbilt.edu/2009/accutanedepression.htm) from the same source cite “This article reviews studies both proving and disproving the claim that Accutane causes depression. Although there are legitimate cases that prove and disprove the theory that Accutane causes depression, the simple fact is that teenagers using Accutane are more prone to depression because of their low self-esteem and Accutane emphasizes this insecurity by decreasing the serotonin levels.” gathering from this statement of the article the
Why is the discovery of Teixobactin Antibiotic making scientific headlines? Since the 1960s there has not been a new antibiotic discovered. Some may think that is impossible but actually it is quite possible. Microorganism’s compounds are found by screening (shifting) through soil however this proved very limited. By the 1960s screening (shifting) for Microorganisms compounds left soil over cultivated. Scientist since have unsuccessfully tried to create synthetic antibiotics however have not been able to match the effectiveness of natural antibiotics.
Codeine is a type of pain medication and relieves a cough. It is treated to relieve mild to moderately severe pain. Codeine is available as a single-ingredient product and it sold that way.

Doxycycline, a semi-synthetic derivative of oxytetracycline is a potent antibacterial drug commonly used as doxycycline hyclate (DOX-h) and used for both in humans and animals treatments [8]. The antibacterial mechanism is mainly regarded as time-dependant and DOX-h is a relatively inexpensive antibacterial drug, potent and possesses a broad-spectrum antibacterial action [9]. In this regard, a poloxamer-based matrix was used to produce a long-acting injectable preparation (DOXh-LA) and its serum concentrations vs. time profile was investigated after its s.c. injection to calves. It was found that the DOX-h-LA showed the greatest values for bioavailability (602%); maximum serum concentration (Cmax) of 1.99 lg/mL with a time to reach (Tmax)
“America's public enemy number one in the united states is drug abuse.” (Nixon) Heroin struck the U.S in the late 1960s, causing the U.S. to spend billions , shockingly the majority of addicts being white. Statistics show that 4 in 5 heroin user started off my misusing prescription drugs. Thousands in the U.S began by taking prescription drugs, such as painkillers containing opium. America was fiercely losing against the war on drugs and the harsh laws were seem to be a mistake. New York city was the first to struggle in the late 1960s with crime and drug addiction.

America is making profit out of prescription drugs, being the wealthiest country, people in America should not live in fear that they would go bankrupt or die if they cannot afford the drugs. Drug companies need to stop being greedy, selfish, and uncaring. These drugs are expensive, however, many Americans cannot afford these prices. The increasing cost of prescription drugs in the United States has become a source of concern for million of patients. They are taking advantage of innocent elders, consumers are unable to purchase prescription drugs, and the pharmaceutical industry is contributing to the high price of prescription drugs. This issue is important to me because I am planning to go into the pharmaceutical industry. I want people to
Heather Murphy created a journal in 2012 that focused on ways to improve a high school setting for all students, but especially for ones that are member of the LBGTQIA+ community. The opening line of Murphy’s journal is: “Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) students are at risk for peer rejection, lack of school support, and verbal and physical victimization at school” (2012). Throughout the research conducted around the idea of a GSA one factor is overpowering, and that is what can happen when a queer person does not feel supported and understood. When someone creates a GSA in a school they are banning students together and combating the peer rejection, they are challenging the generalization that schools do not support
