Novel Strategies to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance

Dear Colleagues,

Antimicrobials have been widely studied from various sources including plants and microorganisms, as well as semi-synthetic and synthetic origins. Antimicrobial resistance represents a major threat worldwide, reducing our ability to cure a wide range of infectious disease. The purpose of this Special Issue is to receive original research articles and reviews that focus on up-to-date Antimicrobial Agents which are essential to combat the growing number of emerging pathogens. We believe that this Special Issue can provide new insights into the current understanding of antimicrobial agents and resistance.
