INTRODUCTION: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a critical global public health concern, particularly acute in rural China. Counties, which cover extensive rural regions, face major challenges in AMR governance and thus require priority attention. Ye...
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) serve as reservoirs for multiple antimicrobial agents (AAs), thereby promoting the risk of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) transmission in sewage and sludge during biological nitrogen removal (BNR) processes. An...
Indigenous phages play a key role in the spread of extracellular antibiotic resistance genes (eARGs), and micro/nanocontaminants can exacerbate this process. However, the specific roles and mechanisms of phage communities in this process are still no...
Microplastics (MPs) and per/polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), as emerging pollutants widely present in aquatic environments, pose a significant threat to human health through the horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs)....
Disinfection has been applied widely for the removal of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) to curb the spread of antibiotic resistance. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is the most used method to quantify the damage of DNA thus calculati...

OBJECTIVE: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), a global threat driven by factors such as improper antimicrobial use in humans and animals, is projected to cause 10 million annual deaths by 2050. For behavior change, public health messages must be tailore...

Antimicrobial resistance refers to the ability of pathogens to develop resistance to drugs designed to eliminate them, making the infections they cause more difficult to treat and increasing the likelihood of disease diffusion and mortality. As such,...
Antibiotic resistance is a global public health concern. Bacteria have evolved resistance to most antibiotics, which means that for any given bacterial infection, the bacteria may be resistant to one or several antibiotics. It has been suggested that...
Wastewater sludges (WSs) are major reservoirs and emission sources of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in cities. Identifying antimicrobial resistance (AMR) host bacteria in WSs is crucial for understanding AMR formation and mitigating biological a...
The rise of antibiotic resistance calls for innovative solutions. The realization that biology can be mined digitally using artificial intelligence has revealed a new paradigm for antibiotic discovery, offering hope in the fight against superbugs.
