Abstract:
Infectious disease mortality have occurred often, raising public awareness of their hazards and advancing global antibiotic research. On the other hand, higher antibiotic levels in natural ecosystems are a result of increased antibiotic demand and use. Gene mutations causing antibiotic resistance in bacterial populations were brought on by natural selection and adaption. The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria was caused by the spread of antibiotic resistance genes in ecosystems, which resulted in a number of antibiotic-resistant diseases on a global scale. An overview of the history of antibiotic discovery, antibiotic use, and antibiotic resistance mechanisms is given in this review study. Bioinformatics is also used to combat antibiotic resistance. To control bacteria that no longer respond to the therapy, the creation of new medications appears to be the primary requirement today.
