Genetic profile of bacteria isolated from hospital effluents in West Africa

2026-07-30

Abstract excerpt

Hospital wastewater poses a major public health threat in West Africa due to the high prevalence of pathogenic and multidrug-resistant bacteria. Untreated effluents facilitate the dissemination of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes into the environment, yet their genetic profiles remain poorly documented in the region. This systematic review aimed to synthesize available evidence on the genetic characterist...
