The respective chapters highlight the discovery of new antibacterial and anti-infective compounds derived from microbes, plants, and other natural sources. The potential applications of nanotechnology to the fields of antibacterial discovery and drug delivery are also discussed, and one section of the book is dedicated to the use of computational tools and metagenomics in antibiotic drug discovery. Techniques for efficient drug delivery are also covered. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the progress made in both antibacterial discovery and delivery, making it a valuable resource for academic researchers, as well as those working in the pharmaceutical industry. 606 $aMedical microbiology 606 $aPharmacology 606 $aInfectious diseases 606 $aBacteriology 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aMedical Microbiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B16003 606 $aPharmacology/Toxicology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21007 606 $aInfectious Diseases$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096 606 $aBacteriology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23012 606 $aNanotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000 606 $aMedicaments antibacterians$2thub 606 $aNanotecnologia$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aMedical microbiology. 615 0$aPharmacology. 615 0$aInfectious diseases. 615 0$aBacteriology. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 14$aMedical Microbiology. 615 24$aPharmacology/Toxicology. 615 24$aInfectious Diseases. 615 24$aBacteriology. 615 24$aNanotechnology. 615 7$aMedicaments antibacterians 615 7$aNanotecnologia 676 $a616.9041 702 $aAhmad$b Iqbal$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAhmad$b Shamim$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aRumbaugh$b Kendra P$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373918903321 996 $aAntibacterial Drug Discovery to Combat MDR$91965982 997 $aUNINA
