Background and Aim: The term ESKAPE, recognized by the WHO, is an acronym, which refers to the pathogens Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter spp., which is extremely virulent and multidrug-resistant. Although the term is used to designate nosocomial pathogens, in a milking environment, strains of Methicillin-resistant S. aureus have been isolated from cattle diagnosed with clinical and subclinical mastitis. Resistant strains may be involved in the transfer of genes conferring resistance to beta-la

Abstract:
Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium well known for its ability to acquire genes for resistance to antimicrobial drugs. A few years after the discovery of penicillin, which initiated the era of antibiotics, resistance to this drug had already been reported in hospitals and in a few decades also became a problem within the communities. Likewise, shortly after the introduction of methicillin as a therapeutic option, the resistance was observed. The indiscriminate use of antibiotics is an important factor contributing to the emergence of new resistant strains. This pathogen has the ability to spr

Abstract:
Bacterial infections are regarded as one of the leading causes of fatal morbidity and death in patients infected with diseases. The ability of microorganisms, particularly methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), to develop resistance to current drugs has evoked the need for a continuous search for new drugs with better efficacies. Hence, a series of non-PAINS associated pyrrolylated-chalcones (1–15) were synthesized and evaluated for their potency against MRSA. The hydroxyl-containing compounds (8, 9, and 10) showed the most significant anti-MRSA efficiency, with the MIC and MBC va

The alarming raise of multi-drug resistance among human microbial pathogens makes the development of novel therapeutics a priority task.
