Excellent- More about Non-traditional Approaches to Combat Antimicrobial Drug Resistance
The book provides a comprehensive overview of non-traditional approaches for tackling antimicrobial resistance, including factors that make microbes more likely to develop multidrug resistance, antimicrobial properties of propolis, essential oils, and other microbial constituents, alternative compounds, phage therapy, drug repurposing, nanoparticles, and microbial quorum-sensing systems. It is an invaluable source of knowledge and information for academics, basic and clinical researchers, clinicians, and paramedic staff involved in the development and use of antimicrobial agents and strategies to combat multidrug resistance.

Non-traditional approaches for tackling antimicrobial resistance are the focus of this book, which offers a thorough examination of the progress and difficulties involved. The first chapter examines the elements that increase the likelihood of microbes developing multidrug resistance, while the second chapter explores the antimicrobial properties of propolis, essential oils, and other microbial components that are currently being used or researched to treat multidrug-resistant infections. The book also covers alternative compounds that act as antimicrobial agents, their mechanisms of action, and how they might be used in conjunction with traditional medications to get around drug resistance. The book also looks at the use of phage therapy and recent developments in phage-based infection control, with a focus on multidrug-resistant infections. It also discusses drug repurposing as a method for quickly and effectively creating new antimicrobial agents. The book also looks at the use of nanoparticles in the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens and examines the use of various nanotechnology-based strategies to circumvent microbial resistance mechanisms. It concludes by reviewing recent studies on microbial quorum-sensing systems and emphasizes the importance and role of antimicrobial stewardship programs in the fight against microbial infections. The book is a valuable resource for academics, basic and clinical researchers, clinicians, and paramedic staff involved in the development and use of antimicrobial agents and strategies to combat multidrug resistance.
