Metagenomic analysis after selective culture enrichment of wastewater demonstrates increased burden of antibiotic resistant genes in hospitals relative to the community
2023-03-09
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an ever-increasing threat to global health. Wastewater-based surveillance is an emerging methodology that objectively enables an inclusive and comprehensive assessment of population AMR in an observed sewershed. Here we compared the resistome of two tertiary-care hospitals with two separate neighborhoods, using complimentary targeted qPCR and metagenomics of wastewater before and...
