Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The first edition of the Special Issue “Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Microorganisms” was published in 2021. It is a successful collection comprising 11 excellent papers. This encouraged us to open a second edition on the same topic.

As a continuation of the first Special Issue, this second edition focuses on the epidemiology of MDROs, the activity of new antimicrobials, implication of various determinants of resistance and strategies to control the diffusions of MDROs. Researchers working in this field are encouraged to submit their best manuscript(s) to this Special Issue.
