Antibiotic-producing Candidate from Soil Sample

As microbes rapidly evolve and develop proteins, the chance of them defeating and becoming resistant to antibiotics increases. The phenomena of antibiotic resistance are globally warning and seen as a health threat to the mass population. Researchers have had a hard time encountering and coping with antibiotic resistance. We can only slow down the inextricable situation while science progresses and technology advances. One method is to look for potential pathogen-fighting microorganisms and use them in more research and antibiotics development. I am honored to contribute to the journey of antibiotic hunting by collecting candidates fighting off ESKAPE relatives from soil samples. Six extremely virulent organisms being resistant to antibiotics are known as ESKAPE. This study concludes that the potential candidate might have antibiotic resistance traits against pathogens because it produced inhibition zones when interacting with ESKAPE safe relatives. My microbiology lab course involves many laboratory procedures, including serial dilution, plate streaking, plate screening and gram staining. Despite having six candidates on my master plate in the end, I have adopted one of my classmate\u27s candidates that has demonstrated the ability to inhibit at least one clinically significant microbe
