An antimicrobial is a substance that kills or inhibits the growth
of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, or viruses. Antimicrobial
drugs either kill microbes (microbicidal) or prevent the growth of
microbes (microbiostatic). The discovery of antimicrobials like
penicillin and tetracycline paved the way for better health for
millions around the world. Before 1941, the year penicillin was
discovered; no true cure for gonorrhea, strep throat, or pneumonia
existed. Patients with infected wounds often had to have a wounded
limb removed, or face death from infection. This book focuses on
insights of novel compounds and their antimicrobial activity by
disc diffusion technique and can be utilized for research oriented
studies and further developments in such drug discovery process.
