Consumption of vegetables represents a route of direct human exposure to bacteria found in
soil. The present study evaluated the complement of bacteria resistant to various antibiotics …

Manuring ground used for crop production is an important agricultural practice. Should
antibiotic-resistant enteric bacteria carried in the manure be transferred to crops that are …

The consumption of crops fertilized with human waste represents a potential route of
exposure to antibiotic-resistant fecal bacteria. The present study evaluated the abundance of …

The usage of antibiotics in animal husbandry has promoted the development and
abundance of antibiotic resistance in farm environments. Manure has become a reservoir of …

Animal manures are commonly used to enhance soil fertility, but there are growing concerns
over the impact of this practice on the development and dissemination of antibiotic …

The main avenue in which antibiotic resistance enters soils is through the application of
livestock manure. However, whether antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic …

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are a relatively new type of pollutant. The rise in
antibiotic resistance observed recently is closely correlated with the uncontrolled and …

Animal manures recycled onto crop production land carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The
present study evaluated the fate in soil of selected genes associated with antibiotic …

Klebsiella, Enterobacter, and other genera (Serratia, Citrobacter, Kluyvera, Pantoea,
Flavimonas, Hafnia, and others), as well as four identified as Escherichia coli. Susceptibility …

The increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and antibiotic resistant
bacteria (ARB) in the soil environment represents a serious threat to public health. In this …
