Some claim that puncturing the tympanic membrane gives better results but this is judging the appearance of the tympanic membrane weeks after the treatments. This study was a double blind-study where 171 children were treated by four different methods. The methods include no antibiotics or myringotomy‚

chemistry. The most common medicines can be classified into few groups‚ e.g. antibiotics; antiseptics; analgesics; and antipyretics etc. While an antibiotic is a drug that kills or prevents the growth of bacteria‚ an analgesic is often used to relieve pain. There are very many medicines that come under each of these groups. Often several chemical compounds that make a particular group of medicines‚ say antibiotics have similar chemical structure. Since the medicines in a particular group are

After surgery‚ the remaining necrotizing fasciitis infection is treated with the appropriate antibiotics (3). Emergency surgery is most often the first and most efficient step in the treatment of necrotizing fasciitis. It is indicated for a patient experiencing either intense pain or displaying major skin discoloration. The main aspects of surgical

Vancomycin was the last-line antibiotic for hospital treatment of serious methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections according to Collignon (2002‚ p. 327). These enterococci have become resistant because of the overuse of the antibiotics that control these infections. Cross-resistance between classes and exposure to one antibiotic may promote resistance

In today’s society the overuse of antibiotics in the agriculture industry has caused very strong antibiotic resistant bacteria (Page and Gautier 2012). Because antibiotics are not doing a good job at containing these bacterias like they use to‚ scientist are now moving towards bacteriophages.

dependency on antibiotics‚ E. Faecalis is becoming feared due to its intrinsic antibiotic resistance (Wesley Glick‚ 2000). This strain is naturally immune to weaker levels of penicillin because of its ability to synthesize cell wall components in the presence of penicillin. Instead of allowing this antibiotic to destroy the cell wall‚ E. Faecalis produces penicillin-binding proteins that inhibit penicillin from disintegrating its cell wall (Susan L. Fraser‚ 2012). Thus a more effective antibiotic must

Antibiotics are medications used to kill or prevent the spread of disease causing bacteria in the body. There are two types of antibiotics which manage infectious diseases differently: 1. Bactericidal Antibiotics: this is when the antibiotic completely kills off the Bacteria. It does this by damaging or interfering with the bacteria’s cell contents or wall. An example of this type of antibiotic is Penicillin which is in fact the first type of antibiotic to be discovered. 2. Bacteriostatic Antibiotics:

Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to discover which type of bacterial inhibitor‚ antiseptics (Hydrogen Peroxide)‚ disinfectants (Ammonia)‚ or antibiotics (Erythromycin) are the most effective; in other words‚ which type of bacterial inhibitor will create the largest zone of inhibition in millimeters squared. In doing this experiment‚ the researchers will reveal which bacterial inhibitors abolish the most bacteria. In the future‚ people will choose the most effective bacterial inhibitor;
