Bacterial cells are prokaryotic cells which contain a substance called peptidoglycan in their cell walls. Prokaryotic cells are cells which do not have a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells which lack peptidoglycan are
We have special white blood cells that attack harmful bacteria. Even if symptoms do occur, our immune system can usually cope and fight off the infection. There are occasions, however, when it is all too much and some help is needed...from antibiotics. Alexander Fleming Alexander Fleming disc...

Abdominal (stomach) upset: Antibiotics are frequently linked with stomach upset such as nausea, vomiting, lack of appetite (anorexia), stomach pain, or heartburn (dyspepsia). Taking your antibiotic with a snack or a meal may help to decrease stomach upset, if you do not need to take it on...
Antibiotics are typically used to treat bacterial infections. However, in recent years, improper and unnecessary use of antibiotics haspromoted the spreadof several strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In cases of antibiotic resistance, the infectious bacteria are no longer susceptible to previously ...

of special bacterial cells known as "persisters." Such bacteria do not divide and are resistant to many antibiotics. According to a2010 articlepublished in the journal Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, "persisters" function by producing substances that block the targets of the antibiotics....
