Next to water, protein is the most plentiful substance in your body and is the principal constituent of the protoplasm in every cell of your body. That said, there is not just one kind of protein, but many kinds in the human body, each with a different function. For example, different proteins can: 1  Provide structure, as found in ligaments, fingernails, and hair. 2  Aid in digestion in the form of digestive enzymes. 3  Play a role in immunity in the form of immunoglobulins.
What is kanamycin (Kantrex)? Kanamycin is in a group of drugs called aminoglycosides (a-MEEN-oh-GLY-koe-sides). It fights bacteria in the body. Kanamycin is used to treat serious infections caused by bacteria. Kanamycin may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide. What are the possible side effects of kanamycin (Kantrex)? Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Also the high dose of kanamycin would minimise the risk of emergence of genetic resistance which can occur with low doses of antimicrobial agent, even in stationary phase bacteria . We showed that this dose of kanamycin over the period of our experiments did not induce genetic resistance since the bacteria lost tolerance and became very sensitive to kanamycin when they returned to log phase growth.
