Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Summary
Details

New Drugs Targeting Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria: Recent Advances examines the molecular, pharmacological, and clinical dimensions of resistance development and highlights innovative therapeutic approaches aimed at overcoming multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), providing an in-depth exploration of emerging strategies to combat one of the most urgent public health challenges of our time-antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Beginning with the mechanisms underlying bacterial resistance such as β-lactamase production, efflux pump activity, and membrane protein modification, the text underscores the growing threat posed by ESKAPE pathogens and CDC-classified priority infections. Chapters also explore cutting-edge interventions including bacteriophage therapy, discovery of novel antibacterial compounds from natural sources, and the use of nanoparticles and quorum-sensing inhibitors to suppress bacterial virulence. Further sections discuss carbapenemase-mediated resistance, emphasizing enzyme classification, detection strategies, and the importance of clinical microbiology in guiding antibiotic stewardship. By integrating one-health perspectives that consider human, animal, and environmental dimensions, this book presents a holistic roadmap for addressing resistance evolution through innovation and responsible antibiotic use. Key Features:

-Examines the molecular mechanisms driving antibiotic resistance in key bacterial species. -Explores bacteriophage therapy as a promising alternative to conventional antimicrobials. -Discovers natural-source compounds and novel drug leads for future antibiotic development. -Analyses carbapenemase-mediated resistance and clinical detection techniques. -Evaluates new therapeutic approaches including nanoparticle-based treatments and quorum-sensing inhibition. -Promotes the one-health approach to tackling multidrug-resistant organisms globally.
