A Comprehensive Review of Antibiotic Resistance Mechanisms in Bacterial Pathogens

Abstract

Danil Uchuskin

Antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens is a pressing global health concern. This comprehensive review delves into the intricate mechanisms underlying bacterial resistance to antibiotics. We explore various resistance strategies employed by bacteria, including genetic mutations, horizontal gene transfer, efflux pumps, and biofilm formation. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial in the development of new therapeutic approaches and the preservation of antibiotic efficacy.
