When antibiotics were introduced to the clinical practice, they became miraculous drugs. Their use resulted in a dramatic decrease of infectious diseases and mortality caused by pathogenic microorganisms. However, during the several last years an evenly dramatic increase in antibiotic resistance has been observed and some infections are becoming, once again, untreatable. Should we thus return to the pre-antibiotic era? Even if bacterial strains resistant to most antibiotics exist they are still in minority and most bacteria are sensitive. Nevertheless, new antibacterial compounds are required to treat particularly dangerous and multiply resistant strains. Several approaches are currently used to discover new natural antimicrobial compounds or at least new derivatives of known compounds
