Anthropogenic pollution has a huge impact on the water quality of marine ecosystems.
Heavy metals and antibiotics are anthropogenic stressors that have a major effect on the …

The emergence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is increasingly common across the globe
and aquatic ecosystems could be considered a reservoir of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This …

We recently described the genetic antimicrobial resistance and virulence profile of a
collection of 279 commensal E. coli of food-producing animal (FPA), pet, wildlife and human …

Antibiotic-resistance gene elements (ARGEs) such as antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs),
integrons, and plasmids are key to the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in marine …

Aquatic environments, under frequent anthropogenic pressure, could serve as reservoirs
that provide an ideal condition for the acquisition and dissemination of antibiotic resistance …

Microbiological contamination is one of the riskiest forms of human contamination in
seawater, which threaten the stability of ecosystems and human health. In this study, we …

Chilean aquaculture mainly produces salmonids and molluscs. Salmonid production has
been questioned by its excessive use of antimicrobials. This study aimed to investigate the …

Brevibacillins are broad-spectrum cationic antimicrobial lipopeptides produced by

As bioindicators, freshwater bivalves are crucial for the assessment of the contamination
impact on different levels of biological integration. Escherichia coli is used as a bioindicator …

Freshwater bivalves are widely used as accumulation indicators and monitoring tools for
assessing contaminant effects on different levels of biological integration. This pilot study …
