Across
- 1. overgrowth of normal microbiota that is resistant to antibiotics
- 4. inhibits the synthesis of folic acid
- 6. the effect of two drugs together is greater than the effect of either alone
- 11. presence of toxin in the hosts blood
- 12. drugs used to treat HIV infections, commonly targets reverse transcriptase
- 14. used to treat roundworms, mites, paralyzes helminths and recently COVID 19 in humans
- 16. perfect for inhibition of bacterial cell wall synthesis
- 19. abilty of a microorganism to produce a toxin
- 20. the use of chemicals to treat a disease
- 21. drugs that affect a narrow range of microbial types
- 22. bacteria that are resistant to large numbers of antibiotics
Down
- 1. more than half our antibiotics are produced from this genus of bacteria
- 2. the effect of two drugs together is less than the effect of either alone
- 3. cause an intense immune response due to release of cytokines from the host cell (T cells)
- 5. KILL microbes directly
- 7. resistance genes are often spread this way (directional) among bacteria on plasmids
- 8. affect a broad range of gram positive or gram negative bacteria
- 9. determines the (MIC), lowest antibiotic concentration preventing bacterial growth
- 10. the ability to cause disease
- 12. antibodies against specific exotoxins used in vaccines
- 13. prevents microbes from growing (applebees take out)
- 15. naturally produced by viral infected cells to inhibit further spread of the infection
- 17. inactivated exotoxins used in vaccines
- 18. the degree of pathogenicity
- 23. proteins secreted by pathogens that bind iron more tightly than host iron binding proteins
