Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Name the five mechanisms of action we utilize to fight microorganisms and list one antibacterial drug for each.Identify examples of cell-wall antibiotics that are not beta-lactam drugs.Is it as effective to take two antibiotics sequentially as it is to take them simultaneously, as long as the total length of time that they are both taken is the same? Explain.
- Explain why viral infections are difficult to treat.Normal microbiota provide protection from infection in each of the following ways EXCEPT: Question 3 options: A) they produce antibacterial chemicals. B) they compete with pathogens for nutrients. C) they make the chemical environment unsuitable for nonresident bacteria. D) they produce lysozyme.If a person contracted MRSA and no antibiotics are working on them, how would you go about finding a way to treat their infection? Describe, in detail, how you would devise a plan to save their life utilizing your knowledge of bacteria and viruses.
- Bacteria are equipped with mechanisms that are capable of counteracting host defenses. Please choose three and discuss the importance they serve.Explain three reasons why infection may not occur after microorganisms enter the body? Solve it.Please answer the one question below, thanks In 2013, there was an outbreak of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at an NFL training facility. One player suffered a career-ending infection to his foot and sued the team owners for $20 million for unsanitary conditions that contributed to the bacterial infection. A settlement with undisclosed terms was reached in 2017. MRSA is highly contagious and is spread by direct skin contact or by airborne transmission and can result in amputation or death. In addition, MRSA is very difficult to treat because it is resistant to many antibiotics. For example, β-lactamβ-lactam antibiotics, such as penicillin, function by binding to and inactivating bacterial penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), which synthesize the bacterial cell wall. However, MRSA expresses an alternative type of PBP, called PBP2a encoded by the mecA gene. β-lactamβ-lactam antibiotics only weakly bind PBP2a, and thus cell wall synthesis can continue in their…
