TLDR
Twenty-one antibiotics were found in the sewage sludge from the two WWTPs at the concentrations up to 5800ng/g, with tetracycline, oxytetracy Cline, norfloxacin and ofloxacIn being the predominant antibiotics.About:

Dilanka N.D. Samaraweera,Xin Liu,Guangcai Zhong,Tilak Priyadarshana,Riffat Naseem Malik,Gan Zhang,Mahdi Safaei Khorram,Zewen Zhu,Xianzhi Peng +8 more
TL;DR: Results illustrated that the majority of the antibiotics can be always detected from both STPs, except for chlorotetracycine (CTC), doxycycline (DOX) and florfenicol (FF), and that AZM was not commonly used among local people and it was mainly introduced by foreign arrivals.

TL;DR: The competitive sorption of the antibiotics sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and trimethoprim (TMP) and SMX-Cd(II) on a hybrid clay nanosorbent (NanoSorb) was investigated in detail in this work.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insight into the fluoroquinolone resistance, sources, ecotoxicity, and degradation with special emphasis on ciprofloxacin
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the sources of FQs in the environment, their detection, and their impact on living beings is presented, where the authors give an insight into the sources and sources of the FQ and their detection.
Journal ArticleDOI
The presence of in situ sulphamethoxazole degraders and their interactions with other microbes in activated sludge as revealed by DNA stable isotope probing and molecular ecological network analysis.
TL;DR: Stable isotope probing coupled with high-throughput sequencing as culture-independent approach revealed four operational taxonomic units involved in sulphamethoxazole (SMX) degradation in activated sludge, expanding the understanding of the diversity of SMX-degrading microbes and their associated characteristics in WWTPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insight into the nitrification kinetics and microbial response of an enriched nitrifying sludge in the biodegradation of sulfadiazine.
TL;DR: The results demonstrated that SDZ degradation was mainly contributed by cometabolism of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB), rather than biomass adsorption, indicating the biotoxicity of SDZ could be mitigated after biodegradation.

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.
