Application of Polymeric Nanocarriers for Enhancing the Bioavailability of Antibiotics at the Target Site and Overcoming Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance is one of the greatest threats to global health. Although the efforts in antibiotic drug discovery continue to play a pivotal role, this solution alone probably will not be enough to ensure the required level of infection control in the future. New strategies and innovative...
