Antimicrobial resistance: (AMR) occurs when microorganisms no longer respond

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when microorganisms no longer respond to antimicrobial medicines. There are different types of antimicrobials, which work against different types of microorganisms, such as antibacterials or antibiotics against bacteria, antivirals against viruses, antiparasitics against parasites, and antifungals against ... Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly bacterial AMR, has become a crucial global health threat, jeopardising the efficacy of treatment and prevention of infections. A comprehensive review of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a global health threat driven by antibiotic misuse and overuse. Learn about the history, mechanisms, impacts, challenges, and solutions of AMR, and how artificial intelligence can help combat it. This resistance affects all classes of microbes, including bacteria (antibiotic resistance), viruses (antiviral resistance), parasites (antiparasitic resistance), and fungi (antifungal resistance).
