Chapter 15, Problem 15PIAT
Summary Introduction
To review:
The effectiveness of nalidixic acid and norfloxacin for inhibiting DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) synthesis after 10 minutes of drug administration.
Introduction:
Ciprofloxacin belongs to the class of fluoroquinolone bactericidal drugs. Ciprofloxacin is a bacterial DNA gyrase (topoisomerase) inhibitor, which is responsible for introducing the negative supercoiling during the replication process.

- Drug substances are useful based on their biological activity. Thus, an assay must be developed to ensure that this important function is preserved during purification. There are three major types of biological activity assays including animal model assays, cell-line-derived assays, and in vitro biochemical assays. Please find an example of each (in literature, online, etc.) and briefly Include a reference for each (no particular reference format required, can simply include a web link if easiest).arrow_forwardBradford Assay Fill in the average A595 and A595 of sample minus A595 of blank.
