Drugs
Across
- 2. anthelmintics that kill infesting helminths
- 5. resistance against one compound gives automatically resistance against another compound
- 7. inhibit growth and multiplication of bacteria, thus allowing the host immune system to complete pathogen elimination
- 8. __________ use: treatment of healthy hearts or animals with the aim to prevent infection
- 9. drugs that interfere with the ability of a virus to infiltrate a target cell or to target different stages of replication and synthesis of components
- 12. anthelmintics that expel infesting helminths
- 13. antimicrobials are used to _________ animals diagnosed with an illness
- 17. _______ synthesis inhibitors: promote autolysis activity -> cell lysis; inhibit peptidoglycan synthesis by binding to PBP's that are involved in this synthesis; β-lactam: penicillin, ampicillin, cephalosporin
- 18. selection of multiple resistance genes when one of the genes is selected
- 19. ________ use: treatment of diseased herds with the aim to cure infection in some individuals and prevent infection in others
- 20. antimicrobials active against both gram(+) and gram(-) microorganisms
Down
- 1. the co-existence of multiple genes or mutations encoding resistance to different drugs within the same strain or genetic element
- 3. antimicrobials are used to ________ the spread of illness in a herd or flock
- 4. _______ synthesis inhibitors: inhibit 50S or 30S of ribosomal chromosomes; ahminoglycosides, marcolides, chloramphenicol
- 6. any substance of natural, semi-synthetic or synthetic origin that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms but causes little damage to the host

- 11. kill microorganisms and reduce total number of viable bacteria
- 14. chemical substance produced by microorganisms that has the capacity in dilute solution to selectively inhibit the growth or kill other microorganisms
- 15. antimicrobials are used to _________ illness in healthy animals when exposure is likely
