What plant do antibiotics come from?
Antibiotics can come from a variety of sources, including fungi (such as penicillin from Penicillium), bacteria (such as streptomycin from Streptomyces), and synthetic compounds. While antibiotics are not typically derived from plants, some plant extracts have shown antibacterial properties and are being studied for their potential medicinal uses.
Why is the plant cell wall not affected by penicillin?
Penecillin doesn't attack the cell wall directly, but inhibits one of the enzymes involved in its synthesis in bacteria. The same enzyme isn't present in plants, so they are unaffected. The plant cell wall is made up of cellulose, whereas the bacterial one is peptidoglycan (sugars and amino acids). Chemically, they're not very similar.
What plant is used to make antibiotic?
Penicillin, a common antibiotic, is derived from the Penicillium mold. This mold produces a compound called penicillin, which has powerful antibacterial properties and is used to treat a variety of infections. The process of extracting and purifying penicillin from the mold is how the antibiotic is made.

Can penicillin kill the bacteria in the underarm?
depends on the penicillin type and the bacterial cause, but if it is a susceptible organism and the type of penicillin is correct then the answer is yes. If you have been prescribed the penicillin by your doctor, then the answer is yes.
Soy sauce citric acid and penicillin all come from?
Deuteromycotes
Why don't plant cells burst when treated with penicillin?
The best i can do is: the cell walls are made from cellulose not peptidoglycan and penicillin interfers and weakens the peptidoglycan that makes up bacterial cell walls
What are the differences of how war world 2 well be without the penicillin n with the penicillin?
Without penicillin many wounded people would have died from infections. With it they did save many lived with the penicillin and sulfa drugs too. They also learned real fast that some people are fatally allergic to penicillin and they had to come up with a way to treat that problem.
What type of chemical will allow come bacteria to be resistant to many penicillin's?
penicillinase

Are oxytetracycline and penicillin from the same family?
No. Penicillin comes originally from the penicillium mold (mould). The tetracyclines all come from the streptomyces mold (mould). Oxytetracycline is related to streptomycin. Allergy to it probably means allergy to streptomycin, but not to penicillin. And vice-versa.
