Surveillance of potential pathogens and antibiotic resistance in wastewater and surface water from Boston, USA and Vellore, India using long-read metagenomic sequencing
2021-04-26
Abstract excerpt
Environmental sampling (wastewater) could be an efficient surveillance strategy to capture global emerging trends in the spread of antibiotic resistance. Long-read DNA sequencing can resolve the genetic context of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and is a promising tool for non-culture-based monitoring of antibiotic-resistant pathogens and ARGs in environmental samples, but has not been rigorously validated agai...
