Alterations of total antioxidant capacity of pathogen cultures under the influence of novel chemical compounds
Introduction. The major and most common mechanisms for almost all antimicrobial substances is the induction of oxidative stress responses within the pathogen cells by accumulation of free radicals, which mediate a whole range of classical antimicrobial mechanisms of action observed by researchers.

Introduction.
