What is the LAL assay?
The Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay is a test used to detect bacterial endotoxins in pharmaceutical and medical device products. LAL is derived from the blood cells of the horseshoe crab and can rapidly detect even very small amounts of endotoxins. It is a sensitive and widely used method in the pharmaceutical industry to ensure product quality and safety.
Does augmentin have penicillian in it?
Yes, Augmentin contains a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxicillin is a penicillin-type antibiotic, while clavulanic acid helps to extend the effectiveness of amoxicillin against certain bacteria.
Are bones sensitive?
Bones themselves do not have pain receptors, so they are not typically sensitive to pain. However, the tissues surrounding bones, such as muscles, ligaments, and tendons, can be sensitive and cause pain if injured or damaged.
Which ear is more sensitive to sound, the left or the right?
Both ears are generally equally sensitive to sound. However, some studies suggest that the right ear may be slightly more sensitive to speech sounds, while the left ear may be more sensitive to music and emotional tones.
What is sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin is a condition where the skin is easily irritated by external factors such as skincare products, weather, or certain fabrics. People with sensitive skin may experience redness, itching, or a burning sensation when they come into contact with triggers. It is important to use gentle products and avoid known irritants to manage sensitive skin.

Can calvepen be used to treat sinusitus?
Calvepen, which contains phenoxymethylpenicillin, is an antibiotic primarily used to treat bacterial infections. It may be effective for sinusitis if the condition is caused by a bacterial infection sensitive to this antibiotic. However, sinusitis can also be viral or due to other non-bacterial causes, in which case Calvepen would not be effective. It's important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
What is good for Typhoid?
Ciprofloxacin 750 mg twice a day for ten days should do. Alternately you can be given ceftriaxone injection by your physician. The bacteria became resistant to chloramphenicol in 1980's. They have become sensitive, as expected to chloramphenicol. So you can use this drug also with due care.

Can Dicloxacillin be used to treat BV?
Dicloxacillin is an antibiotic primarily used to treat bacterial infections caused by penicillin-sensitive organisms, particularly staphylococcal infections. However, it is not effective against the bacteria that cause bacterial vaginosis (BV), which typically require specific antibiotics like metronidazole or clindamycin. Therefore, dicloxacillin is not a suitable treatment for BV.
What antibiotic best kills Klebsiella in UTIs?
chloramphenicolnitrofurantoinamikacinofloxacingentamicinnalidixic acidThese are the sensitive medicines for klebsiella :)
What if a agar plate is isolated and antibiotic added and result is no growth or inhibition?
This is basically ANTIBIOTIC SENSITIVITY TEST, to test whether the given organism is RESISTANT(no zone of inhibition) or SENSITIVE( zone of inhibition) to the given antibiotic.Zone of Inhibition Testing is a fast, qualitative means to measure the ability of an antimicrobial agent to inhibit the growth of microorganisms.The effectiveness is based upon the size of zone of inhibition,diffusability of antibiotic,size of inoculum,type of media used.example: bacillus organism is inoculated with both PENICILLIN and AMPICILLIN ,zone of inhibition is absent in case of penicillin and present in case of ampicillin, this shows that ampicillin (sensitive) worked effectively when compared to penicillin.
When penicillin quit working what should I do?
See a doctor, have your infection tested and get prescription for another class of antibiotic that it is sensitive to.
What is fluxcillin used for?
Fluxcillin is an antibiotic used primarily to treat infections caused by penicillin-sensitive bacteria. It is effective against a range of bacterial infections, including skin infections, respiratory tract infections, and certain types of bone infections. Like other penicillin derivatives, it works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to the death of the bacteria. Always consult a healthcare professional for appropriate use and dosage.
What is an A disk in microbiology?
You'd have to be more specific in your question. However, disks are often laden with antibiotics to see if a bacteria is resistant or susceptible to that antibiotic. The disk is placed on a nutrient agar and then bacteria is spread onto that disk. If the bacteria is susceptible to that antiobiotic, it will grow on the nutrient plate, but not around the disk containing the antibiotic. The larger the clear area around the disk, the more susceptible the bacteria is to that antibiotic. If it is resistant to that antiobiotic, it will grow on the plate and adjacent to the antibiotic laden disk indicating that antibiotic is not effective towards that particular bacterial strain. In one such test the A disk had bactracin. However, I am not comfortable saying that all A disks have bactracin. How the disk is labeled may differ.
Is it true that taking antibiotic can cause bladder infections?
I've been taking antibiotics for my ear infection lately, and I haven't had any problems with my bladder. I suppose it just depends on what type of antibiotic you take, and how sensitive you are to it.
What does penicillin prevent?
Penicillin antibiotics were among the first medications to be effective against many bacterial infections caused by staphylococci and streptococci.
