Prevention of urinary tract infections

In order for the urinary tract to become infected, bacteria must first enter the urinary tract. The bacteria must adhere to the urinary tract lining. They will then multiply and remain in the urinary tract, causing inflammation. This inflammation is what causes animals to show various urinary tract symptoms. Therefore, if we want to prevent bacterial urinary tract infections, focusing on adhesion is the first thing to consider. This is called Anti-adhesive therapeutics.
