background: acinetobacter spp. is characterized as an important nosocomial pathogen and increasing antimicrobial resis­tance. our aim was to evaluate antimicrobial susceptibility and aminoglycosides resistance genes of acinetobacter spp. iso­lated from hospitalized patients. methods: sixty isolates were identified as acinetobacter species. the isolates were tested for antibiotic resistance by d...

This study compared three different disinfection processes (chlorination, E-beam, and ozone) and the efficacy of three oxidants (H2O2, S2O(-)8, and peroxymonosulfate (MPS)) in removing antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in a synthetic wastewater. More than 30 mg/L of chlorine was needed to remove over 90% of ARB and ARG. For the E-beam method, only 1 dose...

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have been reported to threaten the public health of beachgoers worldwide. Although ARG monitoring and beach guidelines are necessary, substantial efforts required for sampling analysis. Accordingly, in this study, we predicted ARGs occurrence that primarily found on coast after rainfall using a conventional long short-term memory (LSTM), LSTM-convolutional neu...

With the extensive use of antibiotics, antibiotics and their induced resistance genes (ARGs) have become new types pollutants widely distributed in a variety environmental media. The contamination ARGs occurring important living agricultural regions has aroused wide concern worldwide, especially lake basins. Dongting Lake basin is one aquaculture livestock areas China, which accompanied by larg...

The use of antibiotics in animal agriculture has exacerbated the presence both antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and residual excreted manure. Field application this manure is a common practice because its nutrient rich material can benefit crop growth. However, also introduce ARGs into nonagricultural settings. integration prairie buffer strips within at edge fields potential management solut...

The free-floating extracellular DNA (exDNA) fraction of microbial ecosystems harbors antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and mobile genetic elements (MGEs). Natural transformation these xenogenetic can generate cells resistant to one or more antibiotics. Isolating obtaining a high yield exDNA is challenging due its low concentration in wastewater environments. Profiling crucial unravel the ecolo...

The reuse of treated wastewater (TWW) has been considered a suitable alternative for agriculture and achieving water security management. However, this practice may contribute to the dissemination antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into environment, matter global concern. aim study is discuss TWW in under perspective risks associated ARGs dissemination. An exhaustive bibliographic research was ...
