Identify the correct set from the following:
- A Penicillin - narrow spectrum - bactereostatic
- B Chloramphenicol - broad spectrum - bactereostatic
- C Ampicillin - narrow spectrum - bactericidal
- D Ofloxacin - broad spectrum - bactereostatic
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Chloramphenicol - broad spectrum - bactereostatic
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Chloramphenicol is a broad spectrum antibiotic which is rapidly absorbed from gastrointestinal. it has a nitrobenzene substitution, which is probably responsible for the antibacterial activity. It is bacteriostatic.
