As warned by Sir Alexander Fleming in his Nobel Prize address: "the use of antimicrobials can, and will, lead to resistance". Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has recently increased due the overuse misuse antibiotics, their animals (food-producing companion) also resulted selection transmission resistant bacteria. The epidemiology is complex, factors other than overall quantity antibiotics consumed may influence it. Nowadays, AMR a serious impact on society, both economically terms healthcare. This narrative review aimed provide scenario state phenomenon veterinary medicine related different animal species; that it can have animals, as well humans environment, was considered. Providing some particular instances, authors tried explain vastness many diverse aspects cannot always be controlled. veterinarian main reference point here high responsibility towards human-animal-environment triad. Sharing such burden with human cooperating together for same purpose (fighting containing AMR) represents an effective example application One Health approach.

The existence of antibiotics in the environment can trigger a number issues by fostering widespread development antimicrobial resistance. Currently, most popular techniques for removing antibiotic pollutants from water include physical adsorption, flocculation, and chemical oxidation, however, these processes usually leave significant quantity reagents polymer electrolytes water, which lead to difficulty post-treating unmanageable deposits. Furthermore, though cost-effectiveness, efficiency, reaction conditions, nontoxicity during degradation are hurdles overcome, variety photocatalysts be used degrade pollutant residuals, allowing potential solutions issues. Thus, urgent need effective rapid photocatalytic leads an increased interest finding more sustainable catalysts degradation. In this review, we provide overview removal pharmaceutical through photocatalysis, detail recent progress using different nanostructure-based photocatalysts. We also review possible sources released ecological chain consequences damages caused wastewater on human health. fundamental dynamic nanomaterials mechanisms then discussed, studies regarding materials some typical commonly comprehensively summarized.

In recent years, antibiotics have been listed as a new class of environmental pollutants. Tetracycline (TCs) used in human medical treatment, animal husbandry and agricultural production are the most widely antibiotics. Due to their wide range activities low cost, annual consumption is increasing. TCs cannot be completely metabolized by humans animals. They can abused or overused, causing continuous accumulation ecological environment potential negative effects on non-target organisms. These may spread into food chain pose serious threat health ecology. Based Chinese environment, residues feces, sewage, sludge, soil water were comprehensively summarized, well transmission capacity air.

The increasing use of antibiotics induces the spread antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs) in environment, which seriously threatens natural ecosystem and human health. Reducing environment is utmost importance. Biochar, as a cost-effective, environmentally friendly, carbon-rich porous material with circular economy prospects, has shown great potential antibiotic remediation environment. adsorption mechanisms (e.g., electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding hydrophobic π–π electron donor–acceptor (EDA) pore diffusion) biotic roles biochar microbial shelter, carrier, mediator) synergistically promote removal from aqueous phase.
