Project Abstract

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is a growing global health concern, threatening the efficacy of current treatment regimens against bacterial infections. This research project aims to explore antibiotic resistance in bacterial isolates obtained from clinical samples. The study focuses on identifying the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in clinical settings and understanding the mechanisms underlying their resistance patterns. The research methodology involves the collection of clinical samples from various healthcare facilities, including hospitals and clinics. Bacterial isolates will be obtained from these samples and subjected to antibiotic susceptibility testing using standard techniques. The study will also involve molecular analysis to determine the genetic basis of antibiotic resistance in the isolates. The literature review provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of antibiotic resistance, including the factors contributing to its emergence and spread. Key concepts such as horizontal gene transfer, selective pressure, and multidrug resistance will be discussed in detail to provide a solid theoretical background for the research project. The findings from this study are expected to shed light on the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in clinical bacterial isolates and the specific resistance mechanisms at play. The discussion will analyze the implications of these findings for clinical practice and public health, highlighting the need for more targeted antibiotic stewardship programs and infection control measures. In conclusion, this research project contributes to the ongoing efforts to combat antibiotic resistance by providing valuable insights into the prevalence and mechanisms of resistance in clinical bacterial isolates. The findings have the potential to inform future treatment strategies and promote the responsible use of antibiotics in healthcare settings.
