Evaluation of Detection Methods for Wastewater Surveillance of Antimicrobial-Resistant Bacteria from Healthcare Facilities

2025-12-15

Abstract excerpt

Carbapenem resistance is an urgent public health threat. Wastewater surveillance could support antimicrobial resistance monitoring at long-term care facilities (LTCFs). Feasibility of wastewater sampling (via composite or passive sampler, and sewer biofilm swabs) for carbapenemase genes ( bla KPC , bla VIM , bla OXA-48-like , bla NDM , and bla IMP ) detected by qPCR or GeneXpert® Carba-R from a LTCF was asses...
