Venom peptides in association with standard drugs: a novel strategy for combating antibiotic resistance - an overview
Abstract Development of antibiotic resistance that leads to resurgence of bacterial infections poses a threat to disease-free existence for humankind and is a challenge for the welfare of the society at large. Despite research efforts directed towards treatment of pathogens, antibiotics within new i...
