Assessment of antimicrobial resistance genes in Caribbean corals, including those treated with amoxicillin
2024-11-01
Abstract excerpt
The decimation of reefs caused by stony coral tissue loss disease prompted the use of a topical amoxicillin treatment to prevent coral mortality. Application of this treatment led to concerns about unintentional impacts such as potential alteration of the coral microbiome and possible spread of antibiotic resistance.
