Some amides are reported to have antibacterial activity. Discuss the feature that is common to amides with antibacterial activity, mechanism of action and applications?
An important feature or property of amide is that it have antibacterial property. Antibacterial property of amide includes the ability to kill or to prevent the growth of bacteria. The mechanism involves the action in the cell membrane and which disrupts the electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation. Usually amides are basic in nature and amide linkages are planar in nature. The major application of the anti-bacterial action is such that amide can be used for the attack against pathogens. These properties of amides are used to analyze gram positive and gram negative bacteria.

Triclosan is a common compound found in many antibacterial hand soaps. It has been banned in the US in consumer antiseptic washes for risk of bacterial resistance. Describe how bacteria may have developed resistance to chemical agents. Investigate Canada’s stance on Triclosan by doing some outside research and state your findings.
In your current research work you have noticed that the antibacterial activity with the kirby-bauer test showed potent results. MIC and MBC tests were performed and the results were as follows: MIC = 12.5 ug/mL MBC = 50 ug/mL please answer question as soon as possible How could you explain this difference
What role does the acetoxy group at the 3-position of cephalosporins have in enhancing antibacterial activity? It acts as a good leaving group when the b-lactam ring is opened It takes part in a transesterification reaction with the carboxylic acid group at position 4 It increases the reactivity of the b-lactam ring by neighbouring group participation It acts as a steric shield and masks enzymatic attack at the b-lactam ring
Recognize the following major structures and know how changing the structure will effect the activity (if we discuss any): Penicillins, Cephalosporins 1. What is the mechanism of action for penicillins and cephalosporins? Is it bactericidal or bacteriostatic? What are the side effects? 2. What is the common structural feature of all penicillins and which is the functional group that is modified? 3. What are the common problems associated with natural pencillins? 4. What does hypersensitivity have to do with chemical...
