However, its utility has subsequently become limited, due to the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance among different bacterial species, which has emerged as a global threat. The development and spread of antimicrobial resistance have been attributed to many factors, including indiscriminate use of antibiotics in the healthcare and livestock industries. The present scenario of antibiotic resistance urgently requires interventions in terms of development of newer antimicrobials, evaluation of alternative therapies, and formulation of stringent policies to curb indiscriminate use of antimicrobials. This book highlights the importance and development of antimicrobial resistance in zoonotic, environmental and food bacteria, including the significance of candidate alternative therapies. 517 $aAntimicrobial resistance 606 $aMicrobiology 610 $aLife Sciences 610 $aImmunology and Microbiology 610 $aApplied Microbiology 610 $aPharmaceutical Microbiology 615 0$aMicrobiology. 676 $a579 700 $aYashwant Kumar$4auth$01364591 702 $aKumar$b Yashwant 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910326248703321 996 $aAntimicrobial resistance$93386015 997 $aUNINA
