As a specialist in the field of microbiology, I've spent a considerable amount of time studying the intricacies of treating fungal infections. Fungal infections are challenging to treat for several reasons, which I will outline below.

Firstly, the biological complexity of fungi sets them apart from bacteria. Fungi are eukaryotic organisms, which means they have a more complex cellular structure, including a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. This complexity makes it difficult to target fungi without also affecting human cells, which are also eukaryotic.

Secondly, the similarity in celluread more >>

Fungal infections are generally very difficult to treat because, unlike bacteria, fungi are eukaryotes. Antibiotics only target prokaryotic cells, whereas compounds that kill fungi also harm the eukaryotic animal host. Many fungal infections are superficial; that is, they occur on the animal's skin.read more >>
