DETECTION AND CHARACTERISTICS OF ANTIBIOTICS-RESISTANT BACTERIA

This article analyzes the identification of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and their main characteristics. During the study, microbiological and phenotypic methods were used to determine the resistance of bacteria to antibiotics. The results obtained showed that the level of antibiotic resistance is increasing, and this situation negatively affects the effectiveness of treatment in clinical practice. It was also found that the incorrect and uncontrolled use of antibiotics is an important factor in the formation of resistant strains. The results of the study justify the need to prevent the problem of antibiotic resistance and develop rational antibiotic therapy.
