In order to evaluate the impact of an urban effluent on antibiotic resistance of freshwater
bacterial populations, water samples were collected from the Arga river (Spain), upstream …

A total of 765 Escherichia coli isolates from point and nonpoint sources were collected from
the Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve, and their multiple-antibiotic …

The present study was undertaken to investigate the spectrum of bacteria present in the
River Gomti water before and after chlorination for drinking purposes. We observed that the …

The resistance patterns of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from freshwater and
seawater to different antimicrobial agents and heavy metals were studied. It was found that …

This work compares antibiotic resistance of 870 E. coli strains isolated from domestic raw
sewage, in the effluent from aerobic lagoons and activated sludge plants. Efficiency of both …

Lack of access to potable water has forced many inhabitants of informal settlements in South
Africa to rely on surface water sources for their daily water needs, thus exposing these …

The objective of this study was to determine the suitability of TetR tetracycline-resistant
bacteria as potential indicators of drug resistance, a parameter of the microbiological quality …

Sewer systems are reservoirs of pathogens and bacteria carrying antibiotic resistance genes
(ARGs). However, most recent high-throughput studies rely on DNA-based techniques that …

Heavy metal contamination and antibiotic resistance is a global problem. Bacterial
populations in metal polluted environment adapt to toxic concentration of heavy metals and …
