Project Abstract

Abstract
The rise of drug-resistant bacteria poses a significant threat to global public health, necessitating the exploration of alternative antimicrobial strategies. This research project focuses on investigating the antimicrobial potential of plant extracts as a potential solution to combat drug-resistant bacteria. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of selected plant extracts against a panel of drug-resistant bacterial strains, with a particular focus on understanding the underlying mechanisms of action. The research methodology involves the collection and preparation of plant extracts, screening for antimicrobial activity using well-established assays, and further characterization of active compounds through various analytical techniques. Additionally, the study includes assessing the cytotoxicity of plant extracts on mammalian cells to ensure their safety for potential therapeutic applications. The literature review section provides a comprehensive overview of previous studies on plant extracts with antimicrobial properties, highlighting their diverse chemical composition and mechanisms of action against bacterial pathogens. This section also discusses the challenges associated with drug resistance and the urgent need for alternative antimicrobial agents. The findings from this research project are expected to contribute valuable insights into the potential use of plant extracts as novel antimicrobial agents against drug-resistant bacteria. The discussion section will analyze the results in the context of existing literature, elucidating the significance of the study outcomes and potential implications for future research and clinical applications. In conclusion, this research project represents a critical step towards addressing the pressing issue of drug-resistant bacteria by harnessing the antimicrobial potential of plant extracts. The study findings are expected to pave the way for the development of new therapeutic strategies to combat drug-resistant infections, ultimately benefiting global public health.
