  • Title: Unconventional screening approaches for antibiotic discovery.
    Author: Farha MA, Brown ED.
    Journal: Ann N Y Acad Sci; 2015 Sep; 1354():54-66. PubMed ID: 26100135.
    Abstract:
    The dramatic rise in microbial drug resistance in recent years has led to ongoing searches for novel drugs to add to the armory against infectious disease. Nevertheless, a paucity of new antibacterial drugs in discovery and development pipelines using traditional approaches has prompted a variety of unconventional and disruptive strategies for antibacterial drug discovery. Herein, we review recent nontraditional approaches that have been piloted for early drug discovery efforts. These unique methodologies open new avenues for finding the next generation of antimicrobials.
