Abstract
The modern medicine era is undergoing a pandemic of “antibiotic resistance.” The multidrug‐resistant (MDR) Gram‐negative organisms are hitting the most harm. While gasping in this sinking scenario, our best bet is either to search for new promising powerful antibiotics or to resharpen the old ones. As the development promise of newer antibiotics is not vibrant, the restoration of previously invented but abandoned “old” antibiotics is routine.[1] Moreover, the new uses of old antibiotics are also in game.
期刊介绍:
JGID encourages research, education and dissemination of knowledge in the field of Infectious Diseases across the world thus promoting translational research by striking a synergy between basic science, clinical medicine and public health. The Journal intends to bring together scientists and academicians in Infectious Diseases to promote translational synergy between Laboratory Science, Clinical Medicine and Public Health. The Journal invites Original Articles, Clinical Investigations, Epidemiological Analysis, Data Protocols, Case Reports, Clinical Photographs, review articles and special commentaries. Students, Residents, Academicians, Public Health experts and scientists are all encouraged to be a part of this initiative by contributing, reviewing and promoting scientific works and science.
