A Guide to Different Classes of Antibiotics. Twelve different classes of antibiotic are shown in this graphic with discovery dates indicated, from approximately 1930 through to 1990. Whether the classes are bacteriostatic agents (chloramphenicol, oxazolidinones, sulfonamides, tetracyclines and macrolides) or bactericidal agents (beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, glycopeptides, quinolones, ansamycins, streptogramins and lipopeptides) is also indicated.

Let's do the right click! In chemical proteomics chemoselectivity of the CuAAC is crucial. Andreas Wiest in our group found that formation of the ubiquitous thiotriazole byproduct during the click reactions can be easily diminished: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/.... Congratulations!
