Question

TRUE or FALSE: 1. Metronidazole is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that acts by forming reactive nitro species that inhibit DNA replication in anaerobic bacteria 2. Streptogramins inhibit DNA replication 3. Broad-spectrum antibiotics are often used when the pathogen has not been identified. 4. The β-lactam ring in penicillin can be modified to increase the spectrum of antibiotic activity 5. The β-lactam ring in penicillin can be cleaved to inactivate the antibiotic
