Effect of different biochars on antibiotic resistance genes and bacterial community during chicken manure composting.
TLDR
Rice straw biochar and mushroom biochar were added to lab-scale chicken manure composting to evaluate their effects on the behaviors of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and on total and bio-available heavy metals (Cu, Zn and As).About:

Preparation, modification and environmental application of biochar: A review
Jianlong Wang,Shizong Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the preparation, characterization, modification, and especially environmental application of biochar, based on more than 200 papers published in recent 10 year, to provide an overview of Biochar with a particular on its environmental application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity, abundance, and persistence of antibiotic resistance genes in various types of animal manure following industrial composting
TL;DR: The results suggest that different animal species had significant effects on the diversity, abundance, and persistence of ARGs, where the abundance of transposons, heavy metal concentration, total nitrogen level, and the dosage and duration of exposure to antibiotics may explain these differences.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of biochar for the management of contaminated soil: Preparation, application and prospect.
TL;DR: To determine the effect of feedstock and preparation conditions such as pyrolysis temperature, retention time, gas flow rate, additives on the biochar characteristics and application potentials, the relevant mechanisms should be adequately considered for maximizing the all-around efficiency of biochar amendments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar for composting improvement and contaminants reduction. A review
TL;DR: The paper presents the effect of biochar on compost maturity indices, composting temperature and moisture, and also on the content and bioavailability of nutrients and of organic and inorganic contaminants.

TL;DR: Additional researches are needed, gathering chemical, microbiological and toxicological data to better understand the implied removal mechanisms, the interactions between both components and the environmental matrices and how composting process could be optimized to reduce the discharge of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes into the environment.

UniFrac: a New Phylogenetic Method for Comparing Microbial Communities
Catherine A. Lozupone,Rob Knight +1 more
TL;DR: The results illustrate that UniFrac provides a new way of characterizing microbial communities, using the wealth of environmental rRNA sequences, and allows quantitative insight into the factors that underlie the distribution of lineages among environments.

Improvement of the BCR three step sequential extraction procedure prior to the certification of new sediment and soil reference materials
Gemma Rauret,José Fermín López-Sánchez,Angels Sahuquillo,Roser Rubio,Christine M. Davidson,Allan M. Ure,Ph. Quevauviller +6 more
TL;DR: An improvement to the BCR sequential extraction procedure through intercomparison exercises is offered, which will allow the obtaining of CRMs to validate analytical data in the analysis of soils and sediments, and it will also facilitate comparability ofData in the European Union.

Diverse and abundant antibiotic resistance genes in Chinese swine farms.
Yong-Guan Zhu,Timothy A. Johnson,Jian-Qiang Su,Min Qiao,Guang Xia Guo,Robert D. Stedtfeld,Syed A. Hashsham,James M. Tiedje +7 more
TL;DR: Diverse, abundant, and potentially mobile ARGs in farm samples suggest that unmonitored use of antibiotics and metals is causing the emergence and release of ARGs to the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistance gene spread due to manure application on agricultural fields.
TL;DR: The usage of antibiotics in animal husbandry has promoted the development and abundance of antibiotic resistance in farm environments, and its application to agricultural soils is assumed to significantly increase antibiotic resistance genes and selection of resistant bacterial populations in soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistome and its association with bacterial communities during sewage sludge composting.
TL;DR: Results imply that direct application of sewage sludge compost on field may lead to the spread of abundant ARGs in soils, suggesting that the dynamic of ARGs was strongly affected by bacterial phylogenetic compositions during composting.
