Wastewater based genomic surveillance key to population level monitoring of AmpC/ESBL producing Escherichia coli
3 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, but obtaining representative data on AMR for healthy human populations is difficult. Here, we leverage the power of whole genome sequencing (WGS) to screen AmpC- and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli from 77 composite samples obtained from 10 wastewater treatment plants across Finland. We found a high...
