What is the effect of penicillinase and penicillin acylase on the drug.
Ampicillin was added to the agar to selectively inhibit the growth of bacteria that are not resistant to this antibiotic. This allows for the isolation and growth of ampicillin-resistant bacteria, commonly used in experiments involving genetic transformation or selection of specific strains. By adding ampicillin, researchers can ensure that only the desired transformed organisms thrive in the culture, facilitating further study and analysis.
yes, ampicillin is an antibiotic and is not any type of controlled substance....you will pass
what is the difference between ampicillin and amoxicillin?I am not absolutely sure but I think they are basically the same drug. I believe they are an alternative to penicillin. Correct me if I a wrong?the differences are rgarding to the time of adminstration ,Ampicillin given 4 times per day and Amoxicillin 3 times so Amoxicillin is better and quicker absorbed
