Aminoglycoside Antibiotics

  • Chapter
Mechanism of Action of Antimicrobial and Antitumor Agents

Part of the book series: Antibiotics ((ANTIBIOTICS,volume 3))

Abstract

Some aminoglycosides of microbial origin are listed in Table 1. Recently derivatives of these antibiotics, which are effective against resistant organisms,

Table 1 Aminoglycoside antibiotics of microbial origin
Full size table

have been developed; some of them are described below. Except these, there are many aminosugar-containing antibiotics, which are usually classified to other groups of antibiotics: macrolide, lincomycin, streptothricin, etc.
