Once contaminate the drinking water source, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) will
propagate in drinking water systems and pose a serious risk to human health. Therefore, the …

Conventional mechanical and biological wastewater treatment is unable to completely
eliminate all pollutants, which can therefore enter surface water bodies together with treated …

Recent reports are pointing towards the potential increasing risks of resistomes in human
host. With no permissible limit in sight, resistomes are continually multiplying at an alarming …

The prevalence and transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and opportunistic
pathogens in water environments can pose great threat to public health. However, the …

Although pig farms are hotspots of antibiotic resistance due to intensive use of antibiotics,
little is known about the abundance, diversity and transmission of airborne antibiotic …

This study explored the change of tetracycline degradation efficiency, metabolic pathway,

A meta-analysis of existing and available Illumina 16S rRNA datasets from drinking water
source, treatment and drinking water distribution systems (DWDS) were collated to compare …

Both drinking water treatment processes and distribution can lead to antibiotic resistome
variation, yet the variation of antibiotic resistome in the whole drinking water supply system …

The granular activated carbon (GAC) sandwich modification to slow sand filtration could be
considered as a promising technology for improved drinking water quality. Biofilms …

Frequent heavy-metal pollution accidents severely deteriorated the source water quality of
drinking water treatment plants (DWTP). Limited data have explicitly addressed the impact of …
