Antibiotics are medications designed to kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria, thereby treating bacterial infections.
Antibiotics work primarily by targeting specific structures or processes within bacterial cells, such as cell wall
The rise of antibiotic resistance poses a significant global health challenge. Overuse or misuse of antibiotics—such
Not all bacteria are susceptible to antibiotics; some are inherently resistant due to genetic factors. Additionally,
