-a broad-spectrum antibiotics.
-It is commonly used to treat acne, infection, and other infections caused by bacteria.
-The first of these compounds was chlortetracycline followed by oxytetracycline and tetracycline.
Tetracycline is a broad-spectrum polyketide antibiotic produced by the Streptomyces genus of Actinobacteria, indicated for use against many bacterial infections. It is a protein synthesis inhibitor. It is commonly used to treat acne today, and, more recently, rosacea, and is historically important in reducing the number of deaths from cholera. Tetracycline is marketed under the brand names Sumycin, Tetracyn, and Panmycin, among others. Actisite is a thread-like fiber formulation used in dental applications. It is also used to produce several semisynthetic derivatives, which together are known as the tetracycline antibiotics. The term "tetracycline" is also used to denote the four-ring system of this compound; "tetracyclines" are related substances that contain the same four-ring system.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. ANTIFUNGAL AGENTS
These are the drugs or agents which are useful in the treatment of fungal infections are
known as antifungal agents.
OVER VIEW OF FUNGAL
Generally, the fungi have four main characteristics
Fungi are Eukaryotic (They have a nucleus and mitochondria)
They are Heterotrophs (They depends on other organisms for food)
They are multicellular
They cannot move on their own
3. Fungal Infection in Humans = Mycosis
Major Types of Mycoses
Superficial
Cutaneous
Subcutaneous
Systemic
Opportunistic
Symptoms vary from cosmetic to life threatening
4. Types of fungal infections
I. Mucocutaneous (superficial) infections:
a. Dermatophytes:
Cause infection of skin, hair, and nails
e.g. Tinea capitis (scalp), tinea cruris (groin),
tinea pedis (foot), onychomycosis (nails).
5. b. Yeasts:
Cause infections of
moist skin and mucous
membranes
e.g. Candida albicans causing
oral, pharyngeal, vaginal, &
bladder infections
6. II. Systemic mycoses:
are fungal infections affecting
internal organs.
It occurs in immunocompromized
patients e.g. cryptococcosis, and
aspergillosis (lung).
7. 1. Antifungal antibiotics
a. Polyenes – Amphotericin B and
Nystatin
b. Other antifungal antibiotics –
Griseofulvin
2. Azoles: -
a. Imidazole’s - Ketoconazole,
Clotrimazole, Miconazole.
b. Triazoles - Fluconazole, Itraconazole,
Voriconazole and Posaconazole
3. Allylamines – Tolnaftate, Terbinafine and
Naftifine.
4. β – 3-Glucan synthase inhibitor –
Capsofungin, Micafungin and Anidulafungin
5. Pyrimidine derivatives (Nucleosides) -
Flucytosine
6. Fatty acids and carboxylic acids – Sodium
caprylate, Triacetin, Undecylenic acid, Benzoic
acid, salicylic acid and Propionic acid
7. Phenols and their derivatives – Resorcinol
and clioquinol
Based on chemical structure and mechanism of action they are classified in to different types
9. Antifungals can be
grouped into three classes
based on their site of action:
azoles, which inhibit the
synthesis of ergosterol (the
main fungal sterol);
polyenes, which interact
with fungal membrane
sterols physiochemically;
and 5-fluorocytosine, which
inhibits macromolecular
synthesis.
10. ANTIFUNGAL ANTIBIOTICS
POLYENES:
These compounds consist of macrolytic lactones with distinct hydrophilic,
lipophilic region along with conjugated -ene system of double bonds hence they
are called polyene antibiotics.
Based on number of double bonds they are classified in to different types
a. Tetraenes- Natamycin
b. Penta enes – Filipin
c. Hexaenes – Nystatin, Endomycin
d. Heptaenes – Amphotericin B and Candicidin
11. Mechanism of Action:
They have an affinity for sterols containing membranes, especially Ergosterol which is
a primary sterol for of the membrane of fungi and polyenes bind firmly to it, thereby
causing leakage of essential cell constituents and altering the membrane permeability,
which results in to cell death.
NYSTATIN
Nystatin is an antifungal medication that fights infections caused by fungus. Nystatin
when taken by mouth is used to treat yeast infections in the mouth or stomach. Oral
nystatin is not absorbed into your bloodstream and will not treat fungal infections in
other parts of the body or on the skin.
12. Common Side effects of Nystatin include:
Diarrhea, Nausea, Stomach pain or upset, Vomiting, Contact dermatitis, Stevens-
Johnson syndrome, Hypersensitivity reactions, Skin irritation or redness.
USES:
Nystatin, sold under the brand name Mycostatin among others, is an antifungal
medication. It is used to treat Candida infections of the skin including diaper rash,
thrush, esophageal candidiasis, and vaginal yeast infections. It may also be used to
prevent candidiasis in those who are at high risk.
13. AMPHOTERICINE B
USES:
Amphotericin B injection is used to treat serious and potentially life-threatening
fungal infections. Amphotericin B injection is in a class of medications called
antifungals. It works by slowing the growth of fungi that cause infection.
Common side effects may include:
Nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhoea, upset
stomach, loss of appetite, muscle or joint pain, headache,
ringing in your ears, pain, bruising, or swelling where the
medicine was injected, weight loss or flushing (warmth,
redness, or tingly feeling).
14. GRISEOFULVIN
(2S,6'R)-7-chloro-2',4,6-trimethoxy-6'-methyl-
3H-spiro[1-benzofuran-2,1'-cyclohexan]-2'-
ene-3,4'-dione.
Adverse Effects:
The more common side effects of griseofulvin can include: Rash, numbness or
tingling in your hands or feet, yeast infections in your mouth, stomach pain, diarrhea,
heartburn, nausea, vomiting.
USES:
Griseofulvin is an antifungal medicine that is used to treat infections such as
ringworm, athlete's foot, jock itch, and fungal infections of the scalp, fingernails, or
toenails. Griseofulvin may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication
guide.
15. AZOLES
Mechanism of action
Azoles inhibit fungal cytochrome P450
(14 α demethylase) necessary for
ergosterol synthesis, a major
component of fungal cell membrane.
This will alter membrane permeability
and disrupt its function.
They are broad spectrum fungistatic
against many dermatophytes and
candida.

Clotrimazole
SAR OF AZOLE ANTIFUNGAL AGENTS
1. The basic structural requirement for members of the azole class is a
weakly basic imidazole or 1,2,4-triazole ring (pKaof 6.5–6.8) bonded
by a nitrogen–carbon linkage to the rest of the structure.
2. At the molecular level, the amidine nitrogen atom (N-3 in the
imidazoles, N-4 in the triazoles) is believed to bind to the heme iron of
enzyme-bound cytochrome P450 to inhibit activation of molecular
oxygen and prevent oxidation of steroidal substrates by the enzyme.
3. The most potent antifungal azoles possess two or three aromatic rings,
at least one of which is halogen substituted (e.g., 2,4-dichlorophenyl,
4-chlorophenyl, 2,4-difluorophenyl), and other nonpolar functional
groups.

SAR OF AZOLE ANTIFUNGAL AGENTS
4. Only 2, and/or 2,4 substitution yields effective azole
compounds.
5. The halogen atom that yields the most potent compounds is
fluorine, although functional groups such as sulfonic acids
have been shown to do the same.
6. Substitution at other positions of the ring yields inactive
compounds.
7. Presumably, the large nonpolar portion of these molecules
mimics the nonpolar steroidal part of the substrate for
lanosterol 14-demethylase, lanosterol, in shape and size.

8. The nonpolar functionality confers high lipophilicity to the
antifungal azoles.
9. The free bases are typically insoluble in water but are soluble
in most organic solvents, such as ethanol.
10. Fluconazole, which possesses two polar triazole moieties, is
an exception, in that it is sufficiently water soluble to be
injected intravenously as a solution of the free base.

naphthalen-2-ol N,3-dimethylaniline Tolnaftate
TOLNAFTATE
Synthesis:
Adverse Effects:
Irritation of the treated skin may occur. If this effect persists or worsens, notify your doctor or
pharmacist promptly.
A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it
occurs. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the
face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing.
Uses:
Tolnaftate is used to treat skin infections such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and
ringworm. It is an antifungal that works by preventing the growth of fungus.
25. Mechanism of Action:
Although the exact mechanism of action is not entirely known, it is believed
to inhibit squalene epoxidase, an important enzyme in the biosynthetic
pathway of ergosterol (a key component of the fungal cell membrane) in a
similar way to terbinafine.
26. CASPOFUNGIN
Mechanism of Action:
Caspofungin blocks the synthesis of β(1,3)-d-glucan of the fungal cell wall, by non-
competitive inhibition of the enzyme β(1,3)-d-glucan synthase. β(1,3)-d-Glucan is an
essential component of the cell wall of numerous fungal species.
Adverse Effects:
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, flushing (warmth, redness, or tingly feeling of the
skin), headache, irritation at the injection site, skin rash or itching.
Uses:
Caspofungin is an antifungal medicine that fights infections caused by fungus.
Caspofungin is used to treat fungal infections of the stomach, lungs, esophagus, or
other internal body areas.
27. FLUCYTOSINE
4-Amino-5-fluoro-2(1H)-pyrimidinone
Adverse Effects:
Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, numbness, tingling,
or burning pain in your hands or feet, dry mouth or skin rash, Depression of bone
marrow at high doses, hair loss.
Uses:
Flucytosine is used to treat serious fungal infections in the body. It belongs to a class
of drugs known as antifungal drugs. It is often used with other medications. It works
by slowing the growth of certain types of fungus.
28. Mechanism of Action:
Flucytosine enters the fungal cell via
cytosine permease; thus, flucytosine is
metabolized to 5-fluorouracil within fungal
organisms. The 5-fluorouracil is extensively
incorporated into fungal RNA and inhibits
synthesis of both DNA and RNA. The
result is unbalanced growth and death of
the fungal organism.
