Vitamins , are biochemicals , which are very important nutrients for promoting growth of any microorganisms and human. Vital amins is the meaning in the name vitamins which means the one which very important.
Here is some important vitamins for human as well as for microbial growth.
Vitamin A it is also known as Ratinol , it is important for human being , retina of human eye require this vitamin to for its growth and its function, pharmaguideline.
Tiamine is a very important vitamin , they are required in the bio synthesis of DNA and RNA bases , hence this is important vitamin
Vitamin C ascorbic acid, is important in immunity regulation , it boosts immunity in humans .
Vitamin D ,is responsible for good growth of bone.
Vitamin E
Vitamin k
Vitamin B12 is responsible for many biochemical reactions in proteins and enzyme synthesis , therefore it is also very important for microorganisms for their growth.
Folic acid, it is important vitamin it has great role in growth as many proteins and cellular enzyme synthesis depends on its availability. pharmaguideline.
Vitamin B3 niacin is important for humans microorganisms for their growth
All vitamins are available in food items, some times due to certain gastric surgeries intake of these vitamins from gut is reduced or if there is some infection in gut the absorption of these vitamins is hindered from gut , in such condition vitamin supplements are give in the form of injection or tablets or in the form of pharmaceutical dosage form ( pharma .blogspot.com , preparations

virus infection and types of viruses
Viruses are microorganisms , which are living while they are in the host , they make use of host nutrients and enzymes for their own reproduction and growth.
Virus means toxic particle, virus are considered non living things when they are free in the environment in the dormant stage , and become active when the encounter a suitable host.
The example of virus which make use of our body's biochemicals and nutrients for its growth is HIV virus , it make use of human DNA material for its own reproduction. pharmaguideline.
Virus infections are many times difficult to treat as virus exhibit many strains and mutations over the time which is main reason for developing antibiotic and drug resistance.
The main reason why viruses are lethal is that they incorporate its own genetic material in to host cell. this is one of major reason that viruses are associated with many cancer in humans.
Following is the brief list of disease caused by viruses

1. Hepatitis -- Caused by hepatitis B and A virus , Acute hepatitis is mainly caused by Hepatitis A virus
2.AIDS---Caused by HIV
3.Upper respiratory tract infection caused by ---Adenovirus
4.Picorna virus --Causes common cold like condition.
5.Yellow fever caused by yellow fever virus
6.Herpese simplex is caused by Herpeseviridae
7.infulenza is caused by Orthomyxoviridae
8.Rabies ic caused by Rhabdoviridae
9. Mumps is caused by Mumps virus
10. Poliomyletes is caused by polio virus

What is tyndalization
When any material which is pron to be attacked by microorganism is heated for sterilisation, say for 121 degree for 30 minutes , some time it was found that on storage such material again shows microbial growth.
It is the indication that the material might have got sterilised but in storage in favorable condition bacterial spores which are resistant to temperature at which material was sterilised germinate again and give rise to viable microorganisms again.
pharmaguideline.
To counter act this phenomenon , a process was degined where in material is subjected for sterilisation process at 100 deg Celsius for 15 minutes .
Then it is stored for one day , again it is subjected for heating at 100 deg Celsius.
Material is again heated treated till it is boiled normally at 100 deg for 15 minutes.
This process in first day allows spoors to germinate in favourable condition and again material is heated , this step is repeated for two times.
This process is usually used for food processing. pharma .blogspot.com
This process is called as tyndallization after the scientists name John Tyndall who invented the process.

Antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic resistance is a very important factor while choosing an antibiotic against a particular phatogen or disease causing microorganism. After a prolonged or indiscriminate use of an antibiotic microorganism develop mutation in their genetic constitution which make them resistant against toxic action of an antibiotic , there are several mechanisms responsible for acquiring antibiotic resistance in microorganisms like bacteria’s , fungi , viruses etc, it is also termed as drug resitance as antibiotics are used as drugs in treatment of infections. pharmaguideline.
There for a proper antibiotic drug resistance mapping or assay is required to be carried out befor starting a therapy with antibiotics, there is likelihood that after use of an antibiotic over a period of time for treatment or due to cross contamination , it may lead to development of resistance against other antibiotics , such antibiotic resistance developed is called as cross resistance , usually cross resistance occur in same class of antibiotics like betalactum cross resistance will show resistance for other betalactum antibiotic, there for there is special requirements for manufacturing of penicillin group of antibiotics in pharmaceutical companies pharma .blogspot.com
