Identification of clinical carbapenemases, 478 novel β-lactamases and putative seven new bacterial phyla from wastewater contaminated high arctic fjord sediments
2024-11-29
Abstract excerpt
Arctic microbiota is enigmatic and highly underexplored. With the aim of understanding the resistome and microbiota of high-Arctic fjord sediments and the effect of wastewater discharge on sediment microbiota, we analysed sediments using metagenomics. We show presence of 888 clinically relevant antibiotic resistance genes including genes coding resistance against last-resort antibiotics such as carbapenems, colist...
