<p>Potassium clavulanate is a beta-lactamase inhibitor and an antibacterial agent. The presence of potassium clavulanate in culture media inhibits the activity of beta-lactamases, which are enzymes that confer resistance to penicillin and other beta-lactam antibiotics. It also has been shown to be active against bacterial infections such as tuberculosis, sepsis, and pneumonia, where it can inhibit the growth of bacteria by interfering with their ability to form cell walls. Potassium clavulanate is also used as an antimicrobial agent for blood culture technique and antimicrobial treatment.</p>

<p>EIDD 2801 is an orally bioavailable prodrug of β-D-N4-hydroxycytidine and was shown to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 replication in human airway epithelial cells. EIDD 2801 was also tested in mice infected with SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV viruses. EIDD 2801 targets the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and reduces virus titer and improved pulmonary function in experimental animals when used in prophylactic and therapeutic regime.</p>

<p>STAADIUMTM GalactoZide II is a targeted inhibitor for β-galactosidase producing bacteria. The antibacterial activity of STAADIUMTM GalactoZide II is triggered by the enzyme β-galactosidase which is produced by E.coli (EHEC), thermophilic lactic acid bacteria, and other coliform bacteria. STAADIUMTM GalactoZide II can help to selectively inhibit the growth of E. coli in complex bacterial cultures and canbe used in microbiome studies, food control, environmental safety, hygiene, and clinical diagnostics. STAADIUMTM GalactoZide II is not compatible with some experimental conditions, e.g. pH indicators such as neutral red, indigo stains, and possibly H2S staining. STAADIUMTM GalactoZide II can be added as an enzyme-specific selective supplement to agar plates and as an enrichment agent to broth culture.</p>

<p>Ticarcillin disodium salt is a beta-lactam antibiotic that has in vitro activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Ticarcillin is active against penicillinase-producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter aerogenes, Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Serratia marcescens, Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus faecalis, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Furthermore, it inhibits transpeptidase activity of the cell wall of bacteria which prevents peptidoglycan synthesis. It is bactericidal for many bacteria at low concentrations.</p>

<p>Ritonavir is a HIV protease inhibitor. It has an anti-retroviral activity as it inhibits the protease enzymes specific of both HIV-1 and HIV-2 and has been shown to be effective in controlling virus replication in humans and animals. Ritonavir works by preventing the HIV viral protease enzyme from cleaving the structural and replicative proteins produced by HIV genes such as gag and pol.</p>

<p>Membrane pore-forming agent; H+, K+, Pb2+ ionophore; polyether antibiotic</p>

<p>Amphotericin A is a polyene macrolide antibiotic, which is derived primarily from the soil bacterium *Streptomyces nodosus*. This compound functions by binding to ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. This binding creates pores in the membrane, increasing its permeability and ultimately leading to cell death. Unlike its more widely used counterpart Amphotericin B, Amphotericin A is less frequently utilized but is critical in the study and understanding of antifungal activity.</p>

<p>Papyracillic acid is a bioactive compound, classified as a secondary metabolite, which is isolated from certain species of fungi. This compound originates from the natural metabolic processes of these microorganisms, often cultured on specific media to optimize production levels. Its mode of action involves disrupting essential bacterial cellular functions, primarily by inhibiting the synthesis of key structural components, leading to compromised integrity and function of bacterial cells.</p>

<p>Abacavir sulfate is a pharmaceutical compound classified as a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), which is derived from synthetic sources. Its mode of action involves the inhibition of the reverse transcriptase enzyme, essential for the replication of HIV. By incorporating itself into the viral DNA chain during replication, Abacavir effectively halts the process, preventing further multiplication of the virus within the host cells.<br><br>This antiretroviral medication is primarily used in the management and treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infections. Abacavir sulfate is a critical component in highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), contributing to the reduction of viral load, enhancing immune function, and improving the long-term clinical outcomes in patients living with HIV. Its application in combination therapies has been instrumental in transforming HIV from a fatal disease into a manageable chronic condition.</p>

<p>Ganciclovir is an antiviral agent specifically designed for culture media use. It is a synthetic analogue of 2'-deoxy-guanosine, derived from nucleoside compounds, and operates primarily by inhibiting the replication of viral DNA. Its mode of action involves selective phosphorylation by viral kinases, which converts it into ganciclovir triphosphate, a potent inhibitor of viral DNA polymerase, ultimately preventing viral DNA synthesis.</p>

<p>Symetine is a synthetic peptide-based compound, which is a highly selective agonist of the adenosine A2A receptor. This receptor is coupled to G-proteins mainly associated with activating adenylate cyclase, leading to an increase in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels within the cell. Symetine binds with high affinity to these receptors, inducing a conformational change that facilitates the downstream signaling pathways associated with this receptor family.</p>

<p>1-Ethyl-6-fluoro-7-(piperazin-1-yl)quinolin-4(1H)-one is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, which is a synthetic derivative sourced from the quinolone family. This compound functions by targeting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, which are crucial enzymes involved in the replication and transcription of bacterial DNA. By inhibiting these enzymes, the antibiotic effectively disrupts DNA replication in susceptible bacterial strains, leading to cell death.</p>

<p>Chevalone E is a specialized nematicide, which is derived from natural plant sources. Its mode of action is based on disrupting the normal physiological processes of nematodes, thereby inhibiting their ability to infect and damage host plants. Chevalone E is particularly valued for its ability to target a broad range of nematode species, making it an effective tool in integrated pest management strategies.</p>

<p>3'-N,N-Di(desmethyl)-3'-N-formyl azithromycin is a semisynthetic macrolide antibiotic derivative, which is synthesized through chemical modification of azithromycin. Azithromycin is originally derived from erythromycin, which is produced by the bacterium Saccharopolyspora erythraea. The modifications in this derivative result in enhanced specificity and altered pharmacokinetic properties compared to the parent compound.</p>

<p>Aliconazole is a triazole-based antifungal agent, which is a synthetic derivative developed through chemical synthesis. It functions by inhibiting the enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, crucial in the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. By disrupting ergosterol production, aliconazole compromises the structural integrity of the cell membrane, leading to increased permeability and eventual cell death.</p>
