Evaluation of Antibiotic Resistance Pattern of Pathogenic Bacteria in the Yasooj Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant
Background & objectives: Wastewater treatment plants represent one of the most important approachs for water conservation. On the other hand, wastewaters can act as a source of antibiotics in aquatic environments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the Yasooj municipal wastewater treatment plant for removal of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Listeria monocytog...
متن کاملStrategies to Combat Antibiotic Resistance in the Wastewater Treatment Plants
The main goal of this manuscript is to review different treatment strategies and mechanisms for combating the antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs) in the wastewater environment. The high amount of antibiotics is released into the wastewater that may promote selection of ARB and ARGs which find their way into natural environments. Emerging microbial pathogens...
متن کاملPrevalence and proliferation of antibiotic resistance genes in two municipal wastewater treatment plants.
The propagation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is an emerging health concern worldwide. Thus, it is important to understand and mitigate their occurrence in different systems. In this study, 30 ARGs that confer resistance to tetracyclines, sulfonamides, quinolones or macrolides were detected in two activated sludge wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in northern China. Bacteria harboring...
متن کاملExploring antibiotic resistance genes and metal resistance genes in plasmid metagenomes from wastewater treatment plants
Plasmids operate as independent genetic elements in microorganism communities. Through horizontal gene transfer (HGT), they can provide their host microorganisms with important functions such as antibiotic resistance and heavy metal resistance. In this study, six metagenomic libraries were constructed with plasmid DNA extracted from influent, activated sludge (AS) and digested sludge (DS) of tw...
متن کاملAntibiotic Resistance Pattern of Gram-Negative Bacteria in Gorgan
Abstract Background and Objective: The excessive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics will lead to drug resistance of microorganism and specially nosocomial organisms. Because of high incidence of antibiotic resistance in hospitals, we aimed to study antibiotic resistance to gram negative bacteria. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on the data of biological sampl...
