a medicine which is used for destroying bacteria and curing infections are called antibiotics.
Antibiotics are produced industrially by a process of fermentation, where the source microorganism is grown in large containers (100,000 – 150,000 liters or more) containing a liquid growth medium.
The main types of antibiotics include:
Penicillins - for example, phenoxymethylpenicillin, flucloxacillin and amoxicillin.
Cephalosporins - for example, cefaclor, cefadroxil and cefalexin.
Tetracyclines - for example, tetracycline, doxycycline and lymecycline.
