This book also aims to provide comprehensive insights and current trends on antibiotic therapies to treat microbial infections, their mechanisms of action, and the role of modern drug delivery in improving their efficacy. Written by leading experts from around the globe, the chapters in the book covers important aspects of microbial infections including hospital acquired infections and community acquired infections and adult sepsis, examines the various types of antibiotics with different mechanisms and therapeutic uses, the global challenge of antibiotic resistance, and clinical trials, regulatory considerations, and market overview of antibiotics. Furthermore, the chapters include updated literature reviews of the relevant key topics, high-quality illustrations, chemical structures, flowcharts, and well-organized tables, all of which enable better understanding by the readers.
- Provides in-depth and updated information and analyses on microbial infections, antibiotics and therapeutics, the consequences of antibiotic resistance, and the role of modern drug delivery in improving efficacy
- Discusses different types of antibiotics and their mechanisms as well as traditional medicine, herbal drugs, and postbiotics in the treatment and prevention of microbial infections and management of antibiotic resistance
- Contributed by global leaders and experts from academia, industry, research institutes, and regulatory agencies
Postgraduate students, doctoral and postdoctoral research fellows, academicians, pharmaceutical formulators, scientists, researchers, and regulatory scientists of Medical, Pharmaceutical, Biotechnology, Biomedical, Biology, Microbiology, can serve as a collection of knowledge or reference guide in a range of courses related to Medical Sciences (M.B.B.S., M.D., Ph.D.), Pharmacy (M.
