Antimicrobial resistance transmission in the environmental settings through Traditional and UV-Enabled Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plants: A metagenomic insight
2024-08-21
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are pivotal reservoirs for antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) and antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB). Selective pressures from antibiotic residues, co-selection by heavy metals, and conducive environments sustain ARGs, fostering the emergence of ARB. While advancements in WWTP technology have enhanced the removal of inorganic an...
