EMERGENCE OF ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE IN

Pathogenic bacteria or pathogen is responsible for occurrence 
of infectious diseases in humans and animals. Medical intervention 
in an infection primarily involves attempts to eradicate infecting 
pathogen using substances that actively inhibit or kill it, which are 
known as antibiotics.

purposes.  
However, their application has led to the emergence and
