 Antibiotic resistance, ABR, is a global problem that poses a serious threat to human health. It occurs when bacteria develop the ability to survive exposure to certain antibiotics, rendering them resistant to treatment. ABR can be transmitted between different species of bacteria through various mechanisms, including genetic mutation, horizontal gene transfer, and plasmid exchange. In the food industry, ABR can spread through the environment, contaminated water, or contact with infected animals or humans. Food processing lines and finished products can also become contaminated with ABR, leading to increased risks of infections and illnesses. To address this issue, researchers have begun exploring alternative methods such as antimicrobial peptides, which could potentially serve as effective substitutes for antibiotics.
