Infectious diseases and constantly growing antimicrobial drug resistance claim millions of lives each year. Early, specific, and sensitive diagnostics, as well as methods for distinguishing between colonization and invasive infection, are essential for the clinical management of bacterial, mycobacterial, and fungal diseases. During infection, low- molecular-weight siderophores and microbial toxins are secreted into the host organism and serve as early biomarkers. These disease progression indicators also reflect the pathogen response to antimicrobial therapy in a host.
