Moreover, challenges to maize crop improvement such as lack of adequate resources for breeding in poor countries, poor communication among the scientists of developing and developed countries, problems in germplasm exchange, and high cost of advanced high-throughput phenotyping systems are discussed. In the end, future perspectives for maize improvement are discussed, which briefly include new breeding technologies such as transgene-free clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated (Cas)-mediated genome editing for thermo-stress tolerance in maize.Inefficiency of medical therapies used in order to cure patients with bacterial infections requires not only to actively look for new therapeutic strategies but also to carefully select antibiotics based on variety of parameters, including microbiological. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) defines in vitro levels of susceptibility or resistance of specific bacterial strains to applied antibiotic. Reliable assessment of MIC has a significant impact on the choice of a therapeutic strategy, which affects efficiency of an infection therapy. In order to obtain credible MIC, many elements must be considered, such as proper method choice, adherence to labeling rules, and competent interpretation of the results. In this paper, two methods have been discussed dilution and gradient used for MIC estimation. Factors which affect MIC results along with the interpretation guidelines have been described. Furthermore, opportunities to utilize MIC in clinical practice, with pharmacokinetic /pharmacodynamic parameters taken into consideration, have been investigated. Due to problems related to PK determination in individual patients, statistical estimation of the possibility of achievement of the PK/PD index, based on the Monte Carlo, was discussed.
