Bacteriostatic Vs Bactericidal List
The difference between Bacteriostatic and Bactericidal is related to the power of the drug. Bacteriostatic can control the reproduction of bacteria, but it does not kill their lives. If the environment changes, the bacteria may recover and repopulate. Such as tetracyclines, which act on the bacterial ribosome, hinder its protein synthesis, and only stop the proliferation of bacteria.
Bactericidal, on the other hand, directly take the life of the bacteria, destroy its structure or disrupt its metabolism. Like penicillins, which destroy the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall, cause the bacterial wall to be defective, and die due to the imbalance of osmotic pressure.
Here are the highlights: tetracycline, chloramphenicol, etc. belong to the list of bacteriostatic; penicillin and cephalosporins belong to the group of sterilization. It is clear that there is a difference between bacteriostatic and sterilization, and the prescription for clinical medication is accurate, so as to achieve the effect of curing diseases and help patients be healthy.
