preparation of viral antibiotic is diffcult than bacterial antibiotics
Answers
Explanation:
It is difficult to make antiviral medicines than making antibiotics because viruses have few biochemical mechanisms of their own. They enter the host cells and use their machinery for their life processes. So, antiviral medicines will work against the host body. Antibiotics block bacterial synthesis pathways without affecting the body because bacteria use its own metabolic pathway machinery so, it will not affect the host body.
IN SHORT:-
It is difficult to make antiviral medicines than making antibiotics because viruses have few biochemical mechanisms of their own.
Answer:
Antibiotics are effective in controlling microbes as they obstruct the metabolism of microbes. Antibiotics block the biosynthetic pathways of the microbes. However, viruses have very few biochemical mechanisms of their own and utilise the biosynthetic pathways of the host. Hence, viruses are not affected by antibiotics
