Investigating the resistome, taxonomic composition, and mobilome of bacterial communities in hospital wastewaters of Metro Manila using a shotgun metagenomics approach
2025-10-14
Abstract excerpt
We profiled antibiotic resistance genes, bacterial communities, and mobile genetic elements in untreated hospital wastewater from three tertiary hospitals in Metro Manila using shotgun metagenomic sequencing. The resistome analysis revealed high abundances of genes known to confer resistance against sulfonamides ( sul1, sul2 ), aminoglycosides ( aadS ), and macrolides/streptogramins ( msrE, mphE ). High-risk re...
