Antimicrobial Resistance at the Human–Animal–Environment Interface: A One Health Perspective on Drivers, Transmission, and Public Health Responses

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health threat driven by interconnected antimicrobial use and environmental pressures across human, animal, and ecological systems. This review synthesizes current evidence on the major drivers, transmission pathways, reservoirs, surveillance challenges, and public health responses ...

Biosolid Soil Application: Toxicity Tests under Laboratory Conditions

Applied and Environmental Soil Science, 2012
A large volume of generated sewage sludge makes its disposal a problem. The usage of sludge in agriculture is highlighted by a number of advantages. However, heavy metals and other toxic compounds may exercise harmful effects to soil organisms.

Biosolids for soil, not soil for biosolids?

Soil Research
Biosolids are derived from wastewater treatment process. Globally, the volume of biosolids produced is increasing exponentially. Biosolids can be considered as a renewable resource. In agriculture, biosolids can be used as a carbon and nutrient source to improve soil health and agricultural productivity.

Potential Regrowth and Recolonization of Salmonellae and Indicators in Biosolids and Biosolid-Amended Soil [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2005
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the potential for conversion of Class B to Class A biosolids with respect to salmonellae and fecal coliforms during solar drying in concrete lined drying beds. Anaerobically (8% solids) and aerobically (2% solids) digested Class B biosolids were pumped into field-scale drying beds, and microbial populations and ...

Life‐Cycle Environmental Impacts of Removing and Destroying PFAS From Wastewater Effluent

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.
A life‐cycle assessment (LCA) framework was used to estimate environmental impacts from retrofitting existing water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs) to remove and destroy per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from wastewater effluent to support policy, permitting, and planning by regulatory agencies and utilities.

Moderate‐Temperature Hydrothermal Treatment Removes Detectable DNA and Antibiotic Resistance Genes From Municipal Sludge While Preserving Resource Value

Water and Environment Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 484-494, August 2026.
This graphical abstract shows the overall study design where dewatered wastewater sludge samples were collected and subjected to a range of HT temperatures. Measurement of nucleic acid concentration and antibiotic resistance gene profiles across temperatures showed that HT at moderate temperatures offers sustainable, scalable sludge sanitation and ARG ...

Bioaccumulation of emerging organic compounds (perfluoroalkyl substances and halogenated flame retardants) by earthworm in biosolid amended soils.

Environmental Research, 2016
In the present work, the bioaccumulation behavior of 49 target emerging organic compounds (20 perfluoroalkyl substances, PFASs, and 29 halogenated flame retardants, HFRs) was studied in soil invertebrates (Eisenia andrei).
