Globally, animal production has developed rapidly as a consequence of the ongoing
population growth, to support food security. This has consequently led to an extensive use of …

Treated municipal wastewater (TMW) can provide a reliable source of irrigation water for
crops, which is especially important in arid areas where water resources are limited or prone …

Elevations in antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are due not only to the antibiotic burden,
but also to numerous environmental pressures (eg, pesticides, metal ions, or psychotropic …

Pathogenic bacteria are associated with high morbidity rates and present significant
diagnostic challenges in terms of rapid detection. This study introduces a magnetic …

Antibiotics and heavy metals often coexist as non-point-source contaminants in wastewater
and their quite contrary physiochemical properties make their co-removal processes …

Soil microorganisms carrying antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) can colonize plants as
