Pathogenic and Indigenous Denitrifying Bacteria are Transcriptionally Active and Key Multi-Antibiotic Resistant Players in Wastewater Treatment Plants
2020-12-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The global rise and spread of antibiotic resistance greatly challenge the treatment of bacterial infections. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) harbor and discharge antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) as environmental contaminants. However, the knowledge gap on the host identity, activity and functionality of ARGs limits transmission and health risk assessment of WWTPs resistome. Hereby, a genom...
