An Insight into understanding the Antimicrobial Activity of Coriandrum sativum on Antimicrobial Resistant Strains

Abstract

This review highlights the growing emergence of antibiotic resistant bacterial strains. Antibiotics are slowly becoming redundant due to various mechanisms adopted by bacterial strains to combat the bactericidal properties of these antibiotics. Hence, the need of the hour is to find alternative methods of treatment of infections caused by these drug-resistant bacterial strains. The use of herbal products could be employed here as one of the possible solutions to curb the spread of bacterial infections. This review focuses solely on skin infections caused by bacteria. Numerous experiments have proven the bactericidal properties of Coriandrum sativum. Here, we explore the possibility of Coriandrum sativum as a solution to antimicrobial resistance.
