Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 8, Page 1478-1491, August 2026.Abstract BACKGROUND Hospital premises generate wastewater containing a wide spectrum of contaminants, such as pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and pathogenic microorganisms, whilst plenty of them are classified under the antibiotic resistant bacteria (ΑRΒ) category.

Impacts of anthropogenic activity on the ecology of class 1 integrons and integron-associated genes in the environment [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2011 Abstract The impact of human activity on the selection for antibiotic resistance in the environment is largely unknown, although considerable amounts of antibiotics are introduced through domestic wastewater and farm animal waste. Selection for resistance may occur by exposure to antibiotic residues or by co-selection for mobile genetic ...

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.Environmental and anthropogenic drivers of antibiotic resistance dissemination. The cycle reinforces how anthropogenic inputs, such as sewage, animal dung, hospital effluent, and agricultural runoff bring resistant bacteria and antibiotic residues into soil and water.

Integron Diversity in Heavy-Metal-Contaminated Mine Tailings and Inferences about Integron Evolution [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004 ABSTRACTIntegrons are horizontal gene transfer (HGT) systems containing elements necessary for site-specific recombination and expression of foreign DNA. The overall phylogenetic distribution of integrons and range of genes that can be transferred by integrons are unknown.

Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms of Bacterial Anti‐Phage Defence Systems
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.Panoptes as an example for an antiphage system consists of OptS producing a cyclic dinucleotide that prevents activation of OptE, a transmembrane protein. Phage T4 infection introduces the sponge protein Acb2 that adsorbs the cyclic dinucleotide thus activating OptE which disrupts the cell membrane aborting phage infection.

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.Schematic overview of the study and its principal findings. E. coli isolated from bovine meat and meat products was evaluated for antimicrobial resistance using Bayesian network meta‐analysis. The graphical abstract highlights the antimicrobial resistance ranking based on SUCRA, showing high resistance to penicillin, doxycycline, amoxicillin ...

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2018 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157 and non-O157 are food-borne pathogens and contaminants of foods of animal origin. This study was conducted to investigate the presence of virulence and integrase genes in STEC isolates from diarrhoeic ...
