Penicillin kills bacteria by interfering with their cell wall formation, weakening the structure and causing the bacteria to burst and die.
Yes, salt has the ability to kill bacteria on the skin due to its antimicrobial properties.
Yes, sugar has the ability to kill bacteria by drawing water out of their cells through a process called osmosis, which can cause the bacteria to die.
Yes, pepper has antimicrobial properties that can help inhibit the growth of bacteria, but it is not a guaranteed method to kill all bacteria.
Coca-Cola has some ability to kill bacteria due to its high acidity and sugar content, but it is not a reliable or recommended method for disinfection.
Alexander Fleming's conclusion was that a mold called Penicillium notatum had the ability to kill bacteria, leading to the discovery of penicillin as the first antibiotic. This discovery revolutionized medicine by providing an effective treatment for bacterial infections.
BOU stands for "Bactericidal Units" in the measurement of penicillin. It is a unit that quantifies the antibacterial potency of penicillin based on its ability to kill bacteria. One BOU is defined as the amount of penicillin required to kill a specific number of bacteria under standardized conditions. This measurement helps in determining the effectiveness of penicillin against various bacterial strains.
Yes, penicillin is often prescribed for gum and tooth infections.
it cured many diseases
Penicillin kills bacteria by interfering with the ability to synthesize cell wall.
antibiotics kill bacteria by penicillin that works by weakening the cell walls of some bacteria and causing the cells to burst
Antibiotics are medications that kill bacteria.
Mold makes penicillin to kill bacteria.
Yes, penicillin prevents the formation of new bacterial cell wall. If a bacteria reproduces, new cell wall cannot be produced and the cell lyses and dies. However penicillin has no effect on a quiescent (non-reproducing) bacteria. Therefore penicillin is also called a bacteriostatic agent (prevents growth of bacteria), which means penicillin does stop bacteria from reproducing.
Penicillin is used to kill bacteria that cause damage. It kills the bacteria which can cause ear damage.
It helps to kill bacteria. Therfore, it can treat many diseases. Although in modern time, bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics and penicillin is losing its effects.
Penicillium and Streptomyces molds produce substances known as penicillin and streptomycin, respectively, which are able to kill bacteria. These substances are used as antibiotics to treat bacterial infections in humans and animals.
Yes, salt has the ability to kill bacteria on the skin due to its antimicrobial properties.
