🧪 Topic 70: Lincosamides, Amphenicols, Polymyxins

Lincosamides (e.g., Clindamycin)

• MOA: Binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit → inhibits peptide translocation → blocks protein synthesis (bacteriostatic).

• Use: Anaerobic infections (e.g., Clostridium perfringens, Bacteroides), aspiration pneumonia, oral infections, invasive Streptococcus infections.

• Adverse effects: Diarrhea, pseudomembranous colitis (C. difficile), fever.

• Contraindication: Pregnancy (first trimester).

Amphenicols (e.g., Chloramphenicol)

• MOA: Inhibits peptidyltransferase on the 50S subunit → blocks protein synthesis (bacteriostatic).

• Use: Meningitis (H. influenzae, N. meningitidis, S. pneumoniae), Rickettsial infections.

• Adverse effects: Bone marrow suppression (aplastic anemia)

To convert from decimal inches. A fraction of an inch.
Multiplied by 128 to decimal and simplifying the result by 128.

Convert decimal to a fraction of an inch inch

Examples:
1) Convert 0.250 "a fraction of an inch
Applying the rule, we have: (0.250 "* 128) / 128 = 32/128 = ¼"
2) Convert 1.750 "a fraction of an inch
Applying the rule, we have: (1,750 '* 128) / 128 = 1 96/128 = 1 ¾ "
3) Convert 2.953 "a fraction of an inch
Applying the rule, we have: (2.953 "* 128) / 128 = 2 122/128 = 2 61/64"
4) Convert 12.812 "a fraction of an inch
Applying the rule, we have: (12.812 "* 128) / 128 = 12 104/128 = 12 13/16"


To convert from mm. A fraction of an inch. Should be carried mils.
(Divide by 25.4) and then multiplying by 128 and simplify

Anions: Definition and Characteristics

An anion is an ion (an atom or molecule) that possesses a negative electrical charge, meaning it has an excess of electrons. Anions are typically described with a negative oxidation state. They are broadly classified into two main types: monatomic and polyatomic.

Monatomic Anions

Monatomic anions are typically formed when nonmetals gain electrons to complete their valence shell.

Traditional Nomenclature (Monatomic)

These are named using the word ion followed by the name of the nonmetal, ending in the suffix -ide. (Note: Amide and Cyanide are often included here for simplicity, though technically polyatomic.)

• Cl^-: Chloride ion
• H^-: Hydride ion
• S^2-: Sulfide ion
• NH₂^-: Amide ion
• CN^-: Cyanide ion

Systematic Nomenclature

Bonding

Formal Charge: # Valence Electrons - (Nonbonding Electrons + 1/2 Bonding Electrons)

Gases

STP = Standard Temperature and Pressure (273 K or 0°C and 1 atm)

What is a Cheat Sheet? Definition and Terminology

A cheat sheet or crib sheet is a concise set of notes used for quick reference. The term may also be rendered as cheatsheet.

Academic Use and Exam Preparation

Cheat sheets are so named because they may be used by students without the instructor's knowledge to cheat on a test. However, in many educational settings, particularly high school or undergraduate studies, rote memorization is often less important than basic education or intense graduate studies. Therefore, students may be permitted to consult their own notes during the exam, which is not considered cheating.

The act of preparing a so-called cheat sheet is also an educational exercise. For this reason, students are typically only allowed... Continue reading "Cheat Sheets: Definition, Academic Use, and Technical Reference" »

Innovation: Definition and Core Concepts

Innovation is the successful exploitation of new ideas. It encompasses the technical, design, manufacturing, and commercial activities involved in the marketing of a new process or equipment. It is the practical implementation of an idea into a new device or process. Innovation is a specific tool of entrepreneurs, serving as the means by which they exploit change as an opportunity for a different business or service. Note that innovation and invention are not the same things.

Types of Innovation

• Technological innovation: Improving a product’s functionalities or reducing its production cost relative to the state of the art, through the application of knowledge and competencies to tangible features of the

The Victorian Age

Social and Historical Context

The Victorian age covers a wide period and was very productive, literarily speaking. We find the so-called professional writing: writers devoted their lives to writing. Literature became a profession. It constituted an outstanding moment for the development of non-fictional works. Poetry was cultivated, but the novel was the preferred genre.

Queen Victoria ruled Britain from 1837 to 1901. She brought important political and economic development to her country. It was the age of Colonialism, and a new philosophy was introduced. We are speaking about expansion and development. Queen Victoria was very young when she became queen. She was born in 1819 and died in 1901. She was in her teens when she became...
