Abstract

Microbial infection is one of the major challenges to human health world-wide. Millions of deaths are caused by infectious diseases and malfunctioning medical device or equipment [1]. A variety of drugs have been developed to combat with all kinds of bacteria. However, due to the injudicious usage of these compounds, some bacteria have acquired resistance to most of them over years. Nowadays researchers are developing novel antimicrobial drugs to wipe out pathogenic bacteria before the emergence of resistance [2]. Thus, to address bacteria resistance towards antimicrobial is the essence of reducing infection.
