Journal ArticleDOI

Antibiotic resistant Escherichia coli in hospital and municipal sewage and their emission to the environment.

TL;DR: The preliminary disinfection of hospital sewage before its inflow into the sewage system might minimize the spreading of antibiotic-resistant bacteria to the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antimicrobial pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment - occurrence and environmental implications.

TL;DR: The goal of this review paper is to discuss the occurrence and abundance of antimicrobial pharmaceuticals in the aquatic environment in context of adverse effects caused directly by these substances and the threat associated with the antibiotics resistance phenomenon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-positive Enterobacteriaceae in municipal sewage and their emission to the environment

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that despite the treatment, the municipal sewage may be a reservoir of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms and plasmid-mediated antibiotic resistance genes, which may pose a public health risk and requires future evaluation and control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Small-scale wastewater treatment plants as a source of the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes in the aquatic environment.

TL;DR: Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are significant source of antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), which can spread further in the environment by reaching rivers together with effluents discharged from WWTPs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of a freshwater fish farm on the community of tetracycline-resistant bacteria and the structure of tetracycline resistance genes in river water.

TL;DR: The only way in which the fish farm influenced water quality in the Drwęca River was by increasing the diversity of tetracycline-resistance genes, and it should be noted that the bacteria of the genera Aeromonas sp.
