Effective medical care would require the constant introduction of novel antibiotics to keep up in the ?arms race? with resistant pathogens. This book closely examines the latest developments in the field of antibacterial research and development. It starts with an overview of the growing prevalence of resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, including their various resistance mechanisms, prevalence, risk factors and therapeutic options. The focus then shifts to a comprehensive description of all major chemical classes with antibacterial properties, their chemistry, mode of action, and the generation of analogs; information that provides the basis for the design of improved molecules to defeat microbial infections and combat the emerging resistances. In closing, recently developed compounds already in clinical use, those in preclinical or first clinical studies, and a number of promising targets to be exploited in the discovery stage are discussed. 606 $aMedical microbiology 606 $aDrug resistance 606 $aInfectious diseases 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aMedical Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B16003 606 $aDrug Resistance$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B16020 606 $aInfectious Diseases$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096 606 $aApplied Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12010 615 0$aMedical microbiology. 615 0$aDrug resistance. 615 0$aInfectious diseases. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 14$aMedical Microbiology. 615 24$aDrug Resistance. 615 24$aInfectious Diseases. 615 24$aApplied Microbiology. 676 $a610 676 $a615.7 676 $a616.9 676 $a616.9041 702 $aMarinelli$b Flavia$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGenilloud$b Olga$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298309303321 996 $aAntimicrobials$92502653 997 $aUNINA
