Essential oils from plants such as tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia), peppermint (Mentha piperita), and eucalyptus (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) have demonstrated antibacterial properties against multidrug-resistant bacteria through their ability to damage bacterial cell membranes and disrupt cellular functions. These essential oils represent promising alternatives or adjuncts to conventional antibiotics for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens like MRSA and ESBL-producing E. coli and Klebsiella. Further research is needed to better understand their synergistic effects when combined with antibiotics to potentially enhance antibacterial activity.

Bacterial pigments have many applications in current day to day life. The pigments produced by chromobacteria can be used for various applications like dairy, pharmaceutical, and food etc. In this study, three types of pigments were isolated i.e. yellow from Xanthomonas sp., pinkish Red from Rhodotorula sp., and orange from Sarcina sp. Pigmented bacterial isolates were obtained from the soil samples and used for the pigment extraction study. We studied that the pigment producing bacteria and identified the color producing pigments. Soil samples from Pondicherry, Cuddalore, Chennai, and Andhra sea coast were collected and used for isolation of microbes producing pigments. Purification of extracted pigments were done by column chromatography, whereas identification and characterization of purified pigment done by UV-Visible spectrophotometry and GC/MS analysis etc. The pigment isolated from bacterial sp. were used for the antimicrobial activity, antioxidant, and anticancer & transformation studies. The bacterial extracts of carotenoid pigment extracted and used as natural colorants for food products and dying of cloth.

Microbial biotechnology is the use of microorganisms to obtain an economically valuable product or activity at a commercial or large scale.
Like any other man-made technology, microbial biotechnology has both positive and negative effects on the environment.
Biotechnology may carry more risk than other scientific fields: microbes are tiny and difficult to detect, but the dangers are potentially vast.
The use of biotechnical methods—including genetically-engineered microorganisms—is indispensable for the manufacture of many products essential to mankind.
For better or for worse, it is the mankind's task to tackle the problems that are associated with the use of this technology, and which to a high degree are located in the field of unwanted environmental impacts.
The use of biotechnology should be restricted to enhancing the quality of life for plants, animals and human beings only. Anything beyond that is unnatural and highly disastrous to us.

Antimicrobial agent is a substance that interferes with the growth and activity of microorganisms.
These agents inhibit or kill microorganisms. Some antimicrobial agents are used to fight against infections and are called Chemotherapeutic Agents
A unique characteristic of an antimicrobial agent is selective toxicity, that is, it will destroy the organism but not affect the host

Antimicrobial resistance occurs when microbes evolve a mechanism that protects them from the effects of antimicrobials or antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance is a subset of antimicrobial resistance, as it applies to bacteria that become resistant to antibiotics. Resistant microbes are more difficult to treat, requiring higher doses, or alternative medications that may prove more toxic.
Answering the Call to Arms: Tools for assessing the anti-infective potential ...Cassandra Quave
This is a presentation delivered at the 16th Annual Conference on the Science of Botanicals and 5th Annual Interim American Society of Pharmacognosy Meeting from April 11-14, 2016 in Oxford, MS, USA.
Abstract:
Answering the Call to Arms: Tools for Assessing the Anti-infective Potential of Natural Products in a Time of Rising Antibiotic Resistance

As antibiotic resistance continues to rise, the pool of viable anti-infective therapeutic options is becoming rapidly exhausted. New therapies are in high demand and natural products are a likely source of novel bioactive compounds to meet this need. In particular, botanical secondary metabolites represent a rich pool for antibiotic discovery efforts. Plants are often the primary ingredients used in traditional anti-infective therapies, and yet their activity and mechanisms of action are often poorly understood. Much of the antibacterial research on botanical extracts and essential oils has focused on growth inhibitory studies using outdated methods limited in their ability to obtain an accurate assessment of bioactivity. The emergence of new molecular and bioanalytical tools for drug discovery provides a unique opportunity for application to natural products research.
Using Staphylococcus aureus as a model, tools for anti-infective testing of plant extracts will be reviewed, specifically focusing on the merits and limitations of each method. Examples include standardized methods for examining activity for the inhibition of growth (e.g., MIC, MBC), virulence (e.g., quorum sensing and toxin quantification) and pathogenesis (e.g., biofilms and antibiotic synergy). Data from our recent discoveries of novel biofilm [1] and quorum sensing [2,3] inhibitors isolated from medicinal plants (Rubus ulmifolius, Castanea sativa and Schinus terebinthifolius) will be presented in the review of these tools.

8. ANTIBIOTICS
• Treat bacterial infections
• Life saving
• extending the human lifespan
• Naturally, Synthetic, Semi-Synthetic
• Zone of inhibition

(MIC)
9. ERA OF ANTIBIOTICS
• Overuse
• Misuse
"The thoughtless person playing with penicillin
treatment is morally responsible for the death of
the man who succumbs to infection with the
penicillin-resistant organism.”
A. Fleming
13. MECHANISM OF RESISTANCE
• Modify and inactivate
• ẞ-lactams

14. HORIZONTAL GENE TRANSFER
• Sharing of genetic material
• across different genera

• cell to cell sharing
• type IV pili
17. POST ANTIBIOTIC ERA?
• Little research and development
• Mutations can happen quickly and
are easily shared
• What now?

injuries can once again kill” WHO 2015
