no this is not a beta-lactam .
Beta-lactam Ring Records was created in 2000.
prevent cell wall synthesis
A beta-lactam is a lactam with a four-membered ring structure - a structural element of many antibiotics, including penicillin.
yes
Beta-lactamase-positive bacteria produce an enzyme called beta-lactamase which can inactivate beta-lactam antibiotics, such as penicillin, by breaking down the beta-lactam ring in the antibiotic molecule. This makes the bacteria resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics.
A beta-lactamase is an enzyme produced by certain bacteria, which is responsible for their resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics.
No, sulfa drugs are not beta-lactams. Sulfa drugs, or sulfonamides, are a class of antibiotics that contain a sulfonamide group, and they work by inhibiting bacterial folic acid synthesis. Beta-lactam antibiotics, such as penicillin and cephalosporins, have a characteristic beta-lactam ring in their structure and target bacterial cell wall synthesis. Thus, they belong to different classes with distinct mechanisms of action.
β-Lactam antibiotics (beta-lactam antibiotics) are a broad class of antibiotics, consisting of all antibiotic agents that contains a β-lactam ring in their molecular structures.
No, False
None of the above. Penicillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic.
