TLDR
This review covers the present scenario on VA usage, occurrence, toxicity, and removal techniques in the aquatic and terrestrial environments.Abstract:
The increasing worldwide usages of Veterinary Antibiotics (VAs) for therapeutic and nontherapeutic are becoming serious issue due to its adverse effects on all living organisms. Release of VAs into the aquatic and terrestrial environments results in antibiotic resistance in bacteria and toxicity to humans, animals, and plants. This review covers the present scenario on VA usage, occurrence, toxicity, and removal techniques.read more

TL;DR: The risk data indicate that selected antibiotics may pose a threat to aquatic environments, and Cyanobacteria were the most sensitive organisms when using standard ecotoxicological bioassays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotics in the Soil Environment-Degradation and Their Impact on Microbial Activity and Diversity.
TL;DR: The results presented in this review show that antibiotics affect soil microorganisms by changing their enzyme activity and ability to metabolize different carbon sources, as well as by altering the overall microbial biomass and the relative abundance of different groups in microbial communities.

A review of plant–pharmaceutical interactions: from uptake and effects in crop plants to phytoremediation in constructed wetlands
TL;DR: The aim of the current work was to map the present knowledge concerning pharmaceutical interactions with plants in terms of uptake and the use of plant-based systems for phytoremediation purposes to give an in-depth overview of the phytotoxicity of pharmaceuticals, their uptake and their removal by plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Veterinary drugs in the environment and their toxicity to plants.
TL;DR: This review characterizes the commonly used drugs in veterinary practice, outlines their behaviour in the environment and summarizes available information about their toxic effect on plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Veterinary pharmaceutical residues from natural water to tap water: Sales, occurrence and fate.
TL;DR: There is a scientific gap on the occurrence and fate of antiparatic drugs in tap waters, and data on VPRs removal in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) at each step of the process is presented.

Pharmaceutical antibiotic compounds in soils – a review
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of antibiotics on soil organisms were investigated and significant effects on soil fauna were only determined for anthelmintics and antibiotics of various classes were determined for some species and antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Veterinary antibiotics in the aquatic and terrestrial environment
TL;DR: A review of the available data on the present use of veterinary antibiotics in agriculture, on the occurrence of antibiotic compounds and resistant bacteria in soil and water and demonstrates the need for further studies as mentioned in this paper.
