Summary Introduction

To determine:

What does the word semisynthetic mean in reference to an antibacterial agent. What is the name of the active site of the medicine cephalexin. If the microbe evidence to be resistant to cephalexin, resistance is probably due to what enzyme and the other name for a susceptible test (diffusion).

Case summary:

Ben feels honored to serve his nation as a marine sergeant, like his daddy and granddad. He was nearing to complete his second journey of duty in Afghanistan and eagerly waiting to come back to his home along with his wife and two sons. Though, before two weeks he was planning to vacate, he was extremely injured and lost his leg in a suicide bombers attack. In the beginning stage of the treatment, he responded well, but later his wound was evidently infected and become worse. His physicians suggested cephalexin, a semisynthetic cephalosporin. His wound was swabbed and the sample was sent to the lab by the nurse, for diffusion susceptibility test.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
