Carbapenemase genes in hospital wastewater in Africa: A systematic review and meta-analysis

2025-03-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Hospitals may be a significant reservoir of antibiotic-resistant genes, including carbapenemase genes. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and distribution of carbapenemase genes in hospital wastewater in Africa. We conducted a comprehensive search on carbapenemase genes in hospital wastewater in Africa up to November 31, 2024, using PubMed, Google Scholar, and African Journal Online (AJO...
