Insight into using a novel ultraviolet/peracetic acid combination disinfection process to simultaneously remove antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes in wastewater: Mechanism and comparison with conventional processes

- 01 Feb 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the simultaneous removal mechanism of antibiotics and ARGs was investigated using the novel ultraviolet/peracetic acid (UV/PAA) combination disinfection process and conventional disinfection processes were also applied for comparison.

The plant microbiota signature of the Anthropocene as a challenge for microbiome research

Gabriele Berg, +1 more
- 26 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , a review of available literature and their own research targeting exemplarily the plant microbiome is presented. And the authors suggest that different human activities are commonly linked to a shift of diversity and evenness of the plant microbiota, which is also characterized by a decrease of host specificity and an increase of r-strategic microbes, pathogens, and hypermutators.

Metagenomic approach reveals the fates and mechanisms of antibiotic resistance genes exposed to allicins during waste activated sludge fermentation: Insight of the microbial community, cellular status and gene regulation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of exogeneous allicins on the antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) variations during waste activated sludge (WAS) fermentation process were revealed, and the overall abundance of ARGs was respectively reduced by 4.84 and 9.42% in presence of 0.01 and 0.05 grams allicin/g TSS.

Origins and Evolution of Antibiotic Resistance

TL;DR: A review of antibiotic resistance development over the past half-century can be found in this article, with the oft-restated conclusion that it is time to act and to restore the therapeutic applications of antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lateral gene transfer and the nature of bacterial innovation

TL;DR: Unlike eukaryotes, which evolve principally through the modification of existing genetic information, bacteria have obtained a significant proportion of their genetic diversity through the acquisition of sequences from distantly related organisms.

Molecular mechanisms of antibiotic resistance.

TL;DR: Recent advances in understanding of the mechanisms by which bacteria are either intrinsically resistant or acquire resistance to antibiotics are reviewed, including the prevention of access to drug targets, changes in the structure and protection of antibiotic targets and the direct modification or inactivation of antibiotics.
