Towards a fast detection of microbial resistance to antibiotics

Leonardo Venturelli, Anne-Céline Kohler and Sandor Kasas*

The antimicrobial resistance is the ability of bacteria and fungi to proliferate even in presence of antibiotic or antimycotic drugs [1]. In the last twenty years we have been witnessing a colossal increase in the antimicrobial resistance mainly due to the abuse and misuse of these compounds [2]. Although nowadays the use of antibiotics and antimycotics is more strictly regulated, antimicrobial treatment sometimes starts before a complete identification of the infectious agent [3-5].
