Journal ArticleDOI

Reuse of effluent water—benefits and risks

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the benefits of using different types of recycled water and outline the current knowledge and opinions relating to risks such as water quality issues, such as nutrient and sodium concentrations, heavy metals and presence of contaminants such as human and animal pathogens, pharmaceuticals and endocrine disruptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary relationships among ammonia- and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria.

TL;DR: The nitrifiers, as a group, apparently are not derived from an ancestral nitrifying phenotype, and consideration of physiology and phylogenetic distribution suggested that nitrite-oxidizing bacteria of the alpha and gamma subdivisions are derived from immediate photosynthetic ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pcr and the detection of microbial pathogens in water and wastewater

TL;DR: Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is one of the main alternative detection methods being trialed and has been shown to be a rapid, highly sensitive and accurate method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human pathogens and their indicators in biosolids: a literature review.

TL;DR: There is a growing urgency for the identification of more reliable alternative indicators, both index and model microorganisms, which could be used for potential public health risk assessment, and reported literature on the numbers and fate of enteric pathogens and indicators in biosolids is summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevalence of Clinically Relevant Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Surface Water Samples Collected from Germany and Australia

TL;DR: Wide distribution of ARGs for sulfonamide, trimethoprim, macroline, β-lactams and chloramphenicol in the aquatic ecosystems is highlighted which could potentially be transferred from commensal microorganisms to human pathogens.
