Aquaculture at the crossroads of global warming and antimicrobial resistance

Nature Communications, 2020
In many developing countries, aquaculture is key to ensuring food security for millions of people. It is thus important to measure the full implications of environmental changes on the sustainability of aquaculture. We conduct a double meta-analysis (460

Antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial use animal monitoring policies in Europe: Where are we? [PDF]

, 2017
The World Health Organization has recognized antimicrobial resistance as one of the top three threats to human health. Any use of antibiotics in animals will ultimately affect humans and vice versa.

Multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus spp. in houseflies and blowflies from farms and their environmental settings [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Antimicrobial resistance is rising globally at an alarming rate. While multiple active surveillance programs have been established to monitor the antimicrobial resistance, studies on the environmental link to antimicrobial spread are lacking.

The Impact of Triclosan on the Spread of Antibiotic Resistance in the Environment [PDF]

, 2015
Triclosan (TCS) is a commonly used antimicrobial agent that enters wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and the environment. An estimated 1.1 × 105 to 4.2 × 105 kg of TCS are discharged from these WWTPs per year in the United States.

Roving methyltransferases generate a mosaic epigenetic landscape and influence evolution in Bacteroides fragilis group

Nature Communications, 2023
Three types of DNA methyl modifications have been detected in bacterial genomes, and mechanistic studies have demonstrated roles for DNA methylation in physiological functions ranging from phage defense to transcriptional control of virulence and host ...
