Tetracycline resistance genes persist in soil amended with cattle feces independently from chlortetracycline selection pressure
2015-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes originating from animal waste represent environmental pollutants with possible human health consequences. In this study, we addressed the question whether chlortetracycline (CTC) residues in soils can act as selective pressure enhancing the persistence of tetracycline (TC-r) resistance genes in grassland soils receiving cattle feces. We performed a soil microcosm...
