Antimicrobials in wastewater promote the emergence of antibiotic resistance, facilitated by
selective pressure and transfer of resistant genes. Enteric bacteria belonging to Escherichia …

Hospital and municipal wastewater contribute to the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria
and genes in the environment. This study aimed to examine the antibiotic resistance and β …

Hospital sewage plays a key role in the dissemination of antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs)
by serving as an environmental antimicrobial resistance reservoir. In this study, we aimed to …

Increasing beta-lactam resistance has led to the exploration of different places, such as
wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) which have been considered to be reservoirs and …

The antibiotic‐resistance characteristics of bacterial strains in antibiotic production
wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) that contain high concentrations of antibiotics are …

The aquatic environments play a critical function in the widespread of antibiotic-resistant
bacteria, ultimately impacting human health. We evaluated the abundance of …

Objectives To investigate the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), related to
commonly used β-lactams and quinolones, in Escherichia coli present in hospital …

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and carbapenemase-producing organisms
pose severe problems for hospitalized patients. In the absence of efficient sanitation and …

Hospital wastewaters are highly complex effluents acting as a hotspot for antibiotic resistant
bacteria. Especially, Gram-negative bacteria bearing multiple antibiotic resistant genes are …

Wastewater treatment plants are important reservoirs and sources for the dissemination of
antibiotic resistance into the environment. Here, two different groups of carbapenem …
