Drug‐resistant infections threaten human life health impose a heavy burden on global economy. origin molecular basis bacterial presence genes (ARGs). Investigations ARGs mostly focus environments in which frequently used, such as hospitals farms. This literature review summarizes current knowledge occurrence antibiotic‐resistant bacteria nonclinical environments, air, aircraft wastewater, migratory bird feces, sea areas in‐depth, have rarely been involved previous studies.

Aquaculture is the productive activity that will play a crucial role in challenges of millennium, such as need for proteins support humans and respect environment. an important economic Mediterranean basin. A great impact presented, however, by aquaculture practices they involve use antibiotics treatment prophylaxis. As consequence aquaculture, antibiotic resistance induced surrounding bacteria column water, sediment, fish-associated bacterial strains. Through horizontal gene transfer, can diffuse antibiotic-resistance genes mobile further spreading genetic determinants. Once triggered, easily spreads among aquatic microbial communities and, from there, reach human pathogenic bacteria, making vain health.

The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment has created obstacles when treating infectious diseases with antibiotics. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) serve as reservoirs for ARB ARGs can disseminate them into environment. It is important to understand address these risks. Generally, professional disinfection processes have been used WWTPs disinfect target water body, goal eliminating pathogenic microorganisms water. However, are not generally considered, spread developed through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). This Review provides a detailed overview application progress different traditional new technologies removing ARGs, mainly focusing on bacterial inactivation mechanisms chlorination, ozonation, ultraviolet (UV) (including UVA, UVB, UVC), sunlight, sunlight-dissolved organic matter (DOM), photocatalysis (PC)/photoelectrocatalysis (PEC). In addition, this also focuses technology involved clarifies underlying environments. Furthermore, by linking inactivation, describes how SOS response cell membrane permeability may be key step conjugation, transformation, transduction ARGs. Finally, given applications current problems associated light-based controlling challenges opportunities facilitate development future technologies. highlights research directions related ARG transmission control.

Plastic particles impact the propagation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in environmental media, and their perturbation on horizontal gene transfer (HGT) ARGs is recognized as a critical influencing mechanism. However, studies concerning influence mechanisms plastic HGT were limited, particularly for effect particle sizes ARG vector-associated mechanisms. This study explored polystyrene (PS) with 75, 90, 100, 1000, 10000 nm (via transformation) mediated by pUC19, pSTV29, pBR322 plasmids into Escherichia coli cells. PS ≤100 impacted transformation ARGs, but large (1000 nm) showed no obvious effects. Effects three vastly distinct. For pUC19 high replication capacities, was monotonously promoted. pSTV29 low suppressing effects observed. attributed to two competing The enhancing mechanism that direct interaction membrane lipids indirect associated bacterial oxidative stress response induced pore formation cell increased permeability, thus plasmid entrance. inhibiting interfered inside E. coli, decreasing tranformation. deepened our understanding dissemination contamination.

Ecological role of the viral community on fate antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) (reduction vs proliferation) remains unclear in anaerobic digestion (AD). Metagenomics revealed a dominance Siphoviridae and Podoviridae among 13,895 identified operational taxonomic units (vOTUs) within AD, only 21 vOTUs carried ARGs, which accounted for 0.57 ± 0.43% AD resistome. Conversely, ARGs locating plasmids integrative conjugative elements above 61.0%, indicating substantial potential conjugation driving horizontal gene transfer AD. Virus–host prediction based CRISPR spacer, tRNA, homology matches indicated that most viruses (80.2%) could not infect across genera. Among 480 high-quality metagenome assembly genomes, 95 were considered as putative antibiotic-resistant bacteria (pARB). Furthermore, lytic phages 66 pARBs devoid virus/host abundance ratios with an average value 71.7 extensive activity lysis. The infectivity phage was also elucidated through laboratory experiments concerning changes phage-to-host ratio, pH, temperature.
