The respiratory system is responsible for gas exchange in animals-that is, the respiratory system transfers oxygen and carbon dioxide from the air to the circulatory system, and vice versa, across the respiratory surface. Different organisms utilize different methods of respiration.
Vancomycin is a branched tricyclic glycosylated peptide with bactericidal activity against most organisms and bacteriostatic effect on enterococci.
Vancomycin is a strong antibiotic that is normally used in serious cases of staph infection. It belongs to a group of antibiotics called glycopeptides and works by weakening the walls of the bacteria, so causing death. It is often effective in cases of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
