Abstract: 
Antimicrobial resistance has grown to be a problem that affects not just the health of people and animals but also the economy and society. Because there are little preventative and control measures against antibiotic strains of bacterial infections, the Iraq area is most affected. There are two ways in which microbes might become resistant to drugs: either from other bacteria or from inside. Researching these resistance mechanisms is essential to creating effective illness therapies.
