Selective spread of mobile antibiotic resistance genes in wastewater microbiomes driven by the non-antibiotic pharmaceutical carbamazepine
2025-09-09
Abstract excerpt
Carbamazepine (CBZ), a widely used anticonvulsant, is a persistent aquatic micropollutant that withstands biodegradation and accumulates in wastewater-impacted environments. While non-antibiotic pharmaceuticals, including CBZ, have been shown to stimulate horizontal gene transfer (HGT) under laboratory conditions, their effects in complex microbial communities remain poorly understood. Here, we applied an experime...
