Interconnected reservoirs of multidrug-resistant bacteria and plasmids within the hospital built environment

2026-07-20

Abstract excerpt

Hospital sinks and wastewater streams are hotspots for contamination and colonization with multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDR-GNB). However, longitudinal studies investigating the population dynamics of environmental MDR-GNB and links between patients and the environment are lacking, especially in non-outbreak settings. Here we aimed to characterize the diversity and abundance of MDR-GNB across the ho...
