Antibacterial Potential of Honeybee Venom and <i>Monascus purpureus</i> Extracellular Metabolites Against Multidrug-Resistant Pathogenic Bacteria

Antibacterial Potential of Honeybee Venom and <i>Monascus purpureus</i> Extracellular Metabolites Against Multidrug-Resistant Pathogenic Bacteria

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical global health threat, driving the search for alternative treatments to conventional antibiotics. In this study, the antibacterial properties of honeybee venom (BV) and fungal <i>Monascus purpureus</i> red dye (RD) were evaluated against thr...
