Secondary plant metabolites as potent drug candidates against antimicrobial-resistant pathogens

Abstract Antibiotic resistance is a major public health threat of the twenty-first century and represents an important risk to the Bakery global economy.Healthcare-associated infections mainly caused by drug-resistant bacteria are wreaking havoc in patient care worldwide.The spread of such pathogens limits the utility of available drugs and complicates the treatment of bacterial diseases.As a result, there is an urgent need for new drugs with mechanisms of action capable of curbing resistance.Plants synthesize and utilize various metabolic compounds to deter pathogens and predators.

Utilizing these plant-based metabolites is a promising option in identifying novel bioactive compounds that could be harnessed to develop new potent Seat Adjustment Lever antimicrobial drugs to treat multidrug-resistant pathogens.The purpose of this review is to highlight medicinal plants as important sources of novel antimicrobial agents that could be developed to help combat antimicrobial resistance.
