	vancomycin vancomycin , antibiotic resembling penicillin in the way it acts. It is derived from the bacterium Streptomyces orientalis, which was isolated from soil of India and Indonesia. Vancomycin destroys Gram-positive bacteria, especially staphylococci and enterococci (see Gram's stain ). It seems... Read more
	tetracycline tetracycline , any of a group of antibiotics produced by bacteria of the genus Streptomyces. They are effective against a wide range of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, interfering with protein synthesis in these microorganisms (see Gram's stain ). Tetracycline is used to treat...

	Ohms law Ohm's law [for G. S. Ohm ], law stating that the electric current i flowing through a given resistance r is equal to the applied voltage v divided by the resistance, or i = v / r. For general application to alternating-current circuits where inductances and capacitances as well as... Read more
	drug resistance drug resistance condition in which infecting bacteria can resist the destructive effects of drugs such as antibiotics and sulfa drugs . Drug resistance has become a serious public health problem, since many disease-causing bacteria are no longer susceptible to previously effective drug... Read more
	Plasmid Plasmid Plasmids are naturally occurring, stable genetic elements found in bacteria, fungi, and even in the mitochondria of some plants. They may be composed of DNA or RNA, double-stranded or single-stranded, linear or circular. Plasmids almost always exist and replicate independently of the... Read more
	ampicillin ampicillin , a penicillin -type antibiotic that is effective against both gram-negative microorganisms and gram-positive microorganisms such as Escherichia coli. It is often used in the treatment of urinary tract infections, but resistant organisms are increasingly common (see drug resistance... Read more
