Occurrence and fate of antibiotics in a wastewater treatment plant and their biological effects on receiving waters in Guizhou
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the occurrence and fate of antibiotics in a wastewater treatment plant and the ecological risks posed by surface water receiving the effluent discharge, and the results indicated that the levels of 18 antibiotics in the influent ranged from 37.21 to 2935.

Antibiotics and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Sediment of Honghu Lake and East Dongting Lake, China
TL;DR: Redundancy analysis indicated that tetracyclines may play a more important role than sulfonamides in the abundance of sul1, sul2, and tetC gens in Honghu Lake and East Dongting Lake.

Antibiotics in hospital effluent and domestic wastewater treatment plants in Doha, Qatar
TL;DR: In this paper, the concentrations of eight selected antibiotics (ABs): penicillin, amoxicillin, gentamicin, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, erythromycin, metronidazole, and clavulanic acid were analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) with positive ion electrospray.

Degradation of ciprofloxacin by 280 nm ultraviolet-activated persulfate: Degradation pathway and intermediate impact on proteome of Escherichia coli
TL;DR: In this study, the degradation of ciprofloxacin was explored using ultraviolet activated persulfate (UV/PS) with 280 nm ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (UV-LEDs), and the toxicological assessment of degrading intermediates was performed using iTRAQ labeling quantitative proteomic technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence and fate of antibiotics in the aqueous environment and their removal by constructed wetlands in China: a review.
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors summarized the current state of antibiotic contamination in China's three major rivers (the Yangtze River, Yellow River, and Pearl River) and illustrates the occurrence and fate of antibiotics in conventional municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).

Antibiotics in the aquatic environment - A review - Part II
TL;DR: This review brings up important questions that are still open, and addresses some significant issues which must be tackled in the future for a better understanding of the behavior of antibiotics in the environment, as well as the risks associated with their occurrence.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global perspective on the use, sales, exposure pathways, occurrence, fate and effects of veterinary antibiotics (VAs) in the environment
TL;DR: This paper has attempted to summarize the latest information available in the literature on the use, sales, exposure pathways, environmental occurrence, fate and effects of veterinary antibiotics in animal agriculture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of antibiotics in the aquatic environment.
TL;DR: From the large number of ground water samples that were taken from agricultural areas in Germany, no contamination by antibiotics was detected except for two sites, which indicates that intake from veterinary applications to the aquatic environment is of minor importance.
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of antibiotics in conventional and advanced wastewater treatment: implications for environmental discharge and wastewater recycling.
TL;DR: Certain traditional parameters, including nitrate concentration, conductivity and turbidity of the effluent were assessed as predictors of total antibiotic concentration, however only conductivity demonstrated any correlation with total antibiotics concentration.
