Antidepressant desvenlafaxine identified in wastewater promotes transformation and antibiotic resistance risk in <i>Acinetobacter baylyi</i> via metabolic adaptations
2026-06-03
Abstract excerpt
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are known reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Non-antibiotic compounds such as antidepressants may further promote ARG acquisition through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Desvenlafaxine, a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) listed on the EU Surface Water Watch Lists, is among the most frequently detected antidepressants in WWTP effluents, yet its ro...
