Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem which threatens modern healthcare globally.
Resistance has traditionally been viewed as a clinical problem, but recently non-clinical …

Class 1 integrase int I1 has been considered as a good proxy for anthropogenic pollution
because of being linked to genes conferring resistance to antibiotics. The gene cassettes of …

There is increasing evidence that human activity, and especially the resulting effluent, has a
major role in the dissemination of bacterial antibiotic-resistance determinants in the …

Antibiotic resistance development and pathogen cross-dissemination are both considered
essential risks to human health on a worldwide scale. Antimicrobial resistance genes …

The risk for human health posed by polluted aquatic environments, and especially those
carrying antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) of clinical interest, is still debated. This is …
