3 0

Answer: Antibiotics targets the synthesis of protein, nucleic acid, folate and cell wall.

1. Synthesis of protein; antibiotics binds to either 30s or 50s ribosomal subunits blocking the polypeptide from the exiting the tunnel thus inhibiting a full completion of protein expression or production.

2. Nucleic acid synthesis; Antibiotics also act by inhibiting genetic expression, DNA transcription and replication where DNA makes exact copies of itself, as well as RNA molecules preventing bacterial growth.

3. Cell wall synthesis; Inhibition of cell wall synthesis in microorganisms will prevent it from replication and growth.

4. Folate synthesis; Folic acid also known as vitamin B9 helps in DNA replication and cell division. Folate antagonists such as aminopterin kills bacteria by preventing folic acid production required for DNA replication.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Ashing process is done to evaluate the ash content present in petroleum or other proucts, so that they can be used for certain applications

The two major types of ashing process that includes dry ashing and wet ashing and can be performed using microwave systems or conventional means.

a. errors made in the preceding method while determining the ash content of buttermilk by conventional dry ashing are as following:

  • Buttermilk should not immediatly put into muffle immediatley, it should be boiled first to avoid splatter.
  • Temperature should be between 500 to 600 degree celcius at high temperature teh ash content can be loss.
  • The sample should be ashed for 12-18 hrs , more than this can damage the required ash content.
  • platinum tip should be used in place of stainless steel because platinum has a lower concomitant tip impedance than stainless stell, so less reactive to ash.
  • The ash should put in dessicator and not allow to kept in open because ash can react with the humidity in teh atmosphere.

b. The result that occur due to above errors such as the temperature, time,  tongs and leaving ash in open will manipulate the final ash content and its application can be harmful for humans and for other purpose if it will be used.
