This scientific article deals with the problem of antibiotic resistance. It is very difficult to give a complete picture of the resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics, because this topic is very diverse and is being actively investigated. Accordingly, information about more and more cases of antibiotic resistance appears very quickly. Less than a century has passed since the beginning of large-scale use of antibiotics. In this short historical period of time, the threat of antibiotic resistance has reached a global level, and it would be wrong to deny that it is humanity that has created such an enemy through its own efforts. Antibiotic resistance is a property of a microorganism that is associated with a decrease in the quality of the effect of an antibiotic on a given culture. The driving force behind this phenomenon is evolution. With the help of random mutations, an individual appears that is not susceptible to the effects of a previously used drug. The emergence of superbugs-cultures that do not respond to the use of currently existing antibiotics will lead to a decrease in the quality of life of people. Diseases that no longer caused concern in modern society will once again become deadly.
