Antimicrobial nanotechnology: its potential for the effective management of microbial drug resistance and implications for research needs in microbial nanotoxicology.

Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 2013
The development of antibiotics revolutionized human health, providing a simple cure for once dreaded diseases such as tuberculosis. However, widespread production, use, and mis-use of antibiotics have contributed to the next-generation concern for global

Herbs and Drug Resistance: Part 1—Herbs and Microbial Resistance to Antibiotics

Alternative and Complementary Therapies, 2002
M icrobial resistance to drugs has grown remarkably, and with each passing decade, new resistance emerges. The sulfonamide antibiotics were initially effective against group A streptococci and pneumococci but, within 10 years, developed modes of resistance.

Tackling drug resistance with efflux pump inhibitors: from bacteria to cancerous cells

Critical reviews in microbiology, 2019
Drug resistance is a serious concern in a clinical setting jeopardizing treatment for both infectious agents and cancers alike. The wide-spread emergence of multi-drug resistant (MDR) phenotypes from bacteria to cancerous cells necessitates the need to ...

Proteomics Approaches to Uncover the Drug Resistance Mechanisms of Microbial Biofilms [PDF]

, 2017
The current chapter describes the potential of proteomics in understanding the drug resistance mechanisms of microbial biofilms. One of the most important and intriguing properties of microbial biofilms is their increased resistance to challenging environmental conditions.

Characteristics and Evolution of Microbial Drug Resistance in Burned Patients

Journal of Burn Care & Research
Abstract Wound infection is a serious complication in burn injury, which is a common form of trauma and an important public health issue. We investigated samples from burn and nonburn wounds for microbial characteristics and temporal trends of antibiotic resistance. Wound samples were collected from 369 burned patients and 927 non-burned

Quorum sensing pathways in Gram-positive and -negative bacteria: potential of their interruption in abating drug resistance

Journal of chemotherapy, 2019
Quorum sensing (QS) is an inter-cell communication between bacterial populations through release of tiny diffusible compounds as signalling agents, called auto-inducers, abetting bacteria to track population density.
