Between November 18th and 24th, the World Health Organization – with its slogan Antimicrobials: Handle with care – will promote and raise awareness about the correct use of antimicrobials, highlighting that they are a precious resource and should be used prudently. As a company that fights against Antimicrobial Resistance, at Clover Biosoft we support this Read more about World Antimicrobial Awareness Week[…]

Initiatives to fight against antimicrobial resistance

Posted on by cloverbio_webadmin

Author: Verónica Sánchez Mercado As we know, antibiotics are medicines used to prevent and treat bacterial infections in humans and animals and resistance mechanisms occur when bacteria change in response to the use of these medicines. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest threats to global health. Nowadays, a growing number of infections are Read more about Initiatives to fight against antimicrobial resistance[…]
