Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on antimicrobial resistance, including the characterization of resistant bacterial strains, the identification and spread of resistance genes, and the efficacy of antimicrobial treatments. Studies investigate resistance mechanisms in various pathogens like Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterobacterales, and Staphylococcus epidermidis, often employing whole-genome sequencing and molecular epidemiology. The scope also encompasses antimicrobial consumption patterns, the impact of resistance on public health goals, and the development of new therapeutic strategies.
