Definition of Antibiotic
A substance of biological, semisyntheticor synthetic origin of low molecular weight
(on-protein) produced by a fungus or bacterium as secondary metabolites that inhibits or stop growth of other microorganisms in vitro and in vivo selectively, when it used in low concentration
Characteristics of AntibioticsCharacteristics of Antibiotics
It must be able to It must be able to reach the part of the reach the part of the human body where human body where
the infection is the infection is occurringoccurring..
Characteristics of AntibioticsCharacteristics of Antibiotics
It should not cause It should not cause the development of the development of resistant forms of resistant forms of
parasitesparasites..
Characteristics of AntibioticsCharacteristics of Antibiotics
It should not It should not produce undesirable produce undesirable side effects in the side effects in the host such as host such as allergic reaction, allergic reaction, nerve damage or nerve damage or irritation of the irritation of the kidneys and kidneys and gastrointestinal gastrointestinal tracttract..
Characteristics of AntibioticsCharacteristics of Antibiotics
It should be given It should be given orally without orally without inactivation by inactivation by
stomach acid, or by stomach acid, or by injection injection
(parenterally) (parenterally) without binding to without binding to the blood proteinsthe blood proteins..
Characteristics of AntibioticsCharacteristics of Antibiotics
Finally, it should Finally, it should have a high level of have a high level of
solubility in the solubility in the body fluids and be body fluids and be possible to achieve possible to achieve concentrations in concentrations in
the tissue or blood, the tissue or blood, which are which are
sufficiently high to sufficiently high to inhibit or kill the inhibit or kill the infectious agentinfectious agent..
