In recent years, there has been a growing interest on the occurrence of antibiotic-resistant
bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) in treated and untreated drinking …

The use of antibiotics may accelerate the development of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs)
and bacteria which shade health risks to humans and animals. The emerging of ARGs in the …

Persistence of antibiotics in the aquatic environment has raised concerns regarding their
potential influence on potable water quality and human health. This study analyzes the …

The natural environment has been identified as a hotspot for the proliferation and
dissemination of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Plasmids are central to the persistence and …

We evaluated the antibiogram profile of Escherichia coli (n= 300) isolated from selected
rivers in Osun State, Nigeria. The identities of the E. coli isolates were confirmed by …

The present study developed a new step-wise approach to estimate the potential human
health risk of antibiotics in binary mixture for drinking water samples for two different sub …

We assessed the occurrence of pollution indicators and antibiotic resistant bacterial isolates
from water and sediment samples of three different eco-regions of the Chennai coast …

The inevitable development of resistance has sunk the great success achieved in the
discovery of antimicrobial agents and dashed the hope of man in the recovery from …

This study aimed to investigate the bacterial diversity and the background level of antibiotic
resistance in two freshwater ecosystems with low anthropogenic impact in order to evaluate …

Pharmaceutical wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are thought to be a “seedbed” and
reservoirs for multi-antibiotic resistant pathogenic bacteria which can be transmitted to the …
