Occurrence of Antibiotic Resistance in the Mediterranean Sea
Antibiotics, 2022 Seawater could be considered a reservoir of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes. In this communication, we evaluated the presence of bacterial strains in seawater collected from different coasts of Sicily by combining ...

Distribution of antibiotic resistance genes in the environment
Environmental Pollution, 2021 The prevalence of antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the microbiome is a major public health concern globally. Many habitats in the environment are under threat due to excessive use of antibiotics and evolutionary changes occurring in the resistome.

The Spread of Antibiotic Resistance Genes In Vivo Model
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2022 Infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are a major public health threat. The emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the environment or clinical setting pose a serious threat to human and animal health worldwide ...

Evolution and ecology of antibiotic resistance genes [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2007 A new perspective on the topic of antibiotic resistance is beginning to emerge based on a broader evolutionary and ecological understanding rather than from the traditional boundaries of clinical research of antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens. Phylogenetic insights into the evolution and diversity of several antibiotic resistance genes suggest ...

Metagenomic Insights into Chicken Gut Antibiotic Resistomes and Microbiomes
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 The chicken gut microbiota, as a reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), poses a high risk to humans and animals worldwide. Yet a comprehensive exploration of the chicken gut antibiotic resistomes remains incomplete.

Discovery of the fourth mobile sulfonamide resistance gene
Microbiome, 2017 Background Over the past 75 years, human pathogens have acquired antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), often from environmental bacteria. Integrons play a major role in the acquisition of antibiotic resistance genes.

Reservoirs of Antibiotic Resistance Genes
Animal Biotechnology, 2006 A potential concern about the use of antibiotics in animal husbundary is that, as antibiotic resistant bacteria move from the farm into the human diet, they may pass antibiotic resistance genes to bacteria that normally reside in a the human intestinal tract and from there to bacteria that cause human disease (reservoir hypothesis).
