The antibiotic binds to the ribosome of the prokaryotic cell, so it inhibits the proteins translation, hence the cell dies. You have to consider that prokariotic ribosome it´s different to eukaryotic ribosome, so this antibiotic doesn´t affect our cells, only the target bacteria
What else can I help you with?
Can you use tetracycline for kidney stones?
No. Tetracycline is for bacterial infections. See a doctor about the kidney stones.
Explain why antibiotics are effective at killing bacterial cells but do not seem to have an impact on human cells eukaryotic cells Use at least two examples such as tetracycline erythromycin?
Antibiotics target specific structures or processes unique to bacterial cells that are not present in human eukaryotic cells. For example, tetracycline interferes with bacterial protein synthesis by binding to bacterial ribosomes, while erythromycin inhibits the bacterial ribosome's ability to make proteins. Since human cells do not have the same type of ribosomes or protein synthesis mechanisms, antibiotics like tetracycline and erythromycin do not affect human cells the same way they do bacterial cells.
What are three ways and antibiotic destroys bacteria?
There are actually several common antibiotic targets. However, the three most common are the inhibition of cell wall synthesis (penicillins, cephalosporins), inhibition of protein synthesis (macrolides, tetracycline), and the inhibition of replication and transcription, (fluoroquinolones rifampin).
Tetracycline is what kind of bacteria?
Tetracycline is not a type of bacteria, but rather a broad-spectrum polyketide antibiotic produced by the bacteria Actinobacteria Streptomyces, indicated for use against many bacterial infections.
Is cefadroxil a tetracycline?
No, cefadroxil is not a tetracycline. It is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic, used to treat bacterial infections. Tetracyclines, on the other hand, are a separate class of antibiotics that include drugs like doxycycline and tetracycline. Each class has different mechanisms of action and spectrums of activity.
Can you use tetracycline for human on goat?
No, you should not give human medications to animals. While tetracycline is an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections in both humans and goats, the formulations are very different and the dosages are very different. If you suspect your goat has a bacterial infection, you should have a vet come out and examine it. Tetracycline is not very expensive anymore as it is a generic antibiotic, so the largest expense will be to pay for the farm call.
Does a Bacterial cell have only a cell wall?
No, bacterial cell also have phospholipid bilayers.
What parts of a bacterial cell does sodium hypochlorite bleach attack?
Sodium hypochlorite bleach primarily targets the cell membrane of bacterial cells. This can disrupt the cell membrane's structure and function, leading to cell death. Additionally, sodium hypochlorite can also affect bacterial proteins and enzymes, further compromising the cell's ability to survive.
Is tetracycline a broad or narrow spectrum antibiotic?
Tetracycline is considered a broad-spectrum antibiotic that can treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
What type of chemical agent retards bacterial growth?
Antibiotics are chemical agents that retard bacterial growth by targeting specific components of bacterial cells, which can inhibit their growth or kill them. Examples include penicillin, tetracycline, and ciprofloxacin.
Is bacterial cell a endo spore?
yes a bacterial cell is an endo spore
Does a bacterial cell have a cell membrane?
Of course they are found in bacterial cells.Every living cell has a plasma membrane.
