Can you answer all the parts to this question please A. What is the difference in peptidoglycans in gram negative vs gram positive cells/ B. Why does Gram stain not bind to gram negative bacteria?
You have a mixed culture of 2 different bacterial species. One of the species is Gram negative bacilli and the other species is Gram positive cocci. You have noticed that one species is killed by penicillin antibiotics (attacks peptidoglycan) while the other survives. Neither species has antibiotic resistance genes. How can you explain this result? Remember to make direct reference to each bacterial species in your response

Imagine you are a doctor treating a patient with a skin infection caused by a facultative anaerobic bacteria. You have tried several rounds of topical antibiotics, but the infection keeps returning. One of your interns suggests that you try hyperbaric chamber treatment – how would you respond? 1. “Hyperbaric chamber treatment might work because these bacteria won’t be able to obtain energy under low-oxygen conditions. Let’s give it a shot.” 2. “Hyperbaric chamber treatment won’t work because these bacteria can undergo anaerobic fermentation when oxygen levels are low. I’m prescribing oral antibiotics.” 3. “Hyperbaric chamber treatment won’t work because these bacteria can undergo aerobic respiration when oxygen is abundant. I’m going to prescribe oral antibiotics.” 4. “Hyperbaric chamber treatment might work because these bacteria won’t be able to obtain energy under high-oxygen conditions. Let’s give it a shot.”
