Aerosol antibiotic resistance gene dissemination among hospital departments by culture-facilitated comparative metagenomics

2020-01-08

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Genes make microorganisms resistant to antibiotics are overwhelmingly present in environments, and those in the air seem to consistently worsen human health, especially in built-in hospitals. In this study, we sampled two distinct seasonal solid-, liquid- and gaseous-state samples in a large occupied hospital, and mainly aim to study the temporal and spatial micro-ecology an...
