New affordable anti-bacteria’s are urgently needed to treat carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections as identified in the WHO priority pathogen list. Bacterial infections like urinary tract infections, sexually transmitted infections, sepsis, and some forms of diarrhea, high rates of resistance against antibiotics frequently used to treat these infections have been observed worldwide, indicating that we are running out of effective antibiotics.
