Abstract

The impact of chemotherapy on the practice of veterinary medicine cannot be overstated. It resulted in a very strong link between the disciplines of biochemistry, microbiology, molecular biology, and pharmacology.

For many years following the discovery of the clinical value of antimicrobial agents, production and usage far surpassed scientific research and development in the field of antimicrobial agents due to their immediate and overwhelming acceptance. It is no wonder that antibiotics and sulfonamides have often been misused by the veterinarian and physician as well as the agriculturalists.
