Antimicrobial control is critical for preventing transmission of pathogens and infection, stopping degradation and spoiling, and avoiding undesired microbial contamination. Physical and chemical treatments are used to keep microorganisms under control. Desiccation, temperature control, osmotic pressure control, filtration and radiation control are examples of physical agents. Disinfectants, antibiotics, antiseptics, and chemotherapeutic antimicrobial compounds are all examples of chemical agents that may be used to control bacteria (Cyprowski, 2020).
