Antibiotic resistance in grass and soil

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2019
Abstract Antibiotic resistance is currently one of the greatest threats to human health. The global overuse of antibiotics in human medicine and in agriculture has resulted in the proliferation and dissemination of a multitude of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).

Thermal resistivity of soils

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1984
Information on the thermal properties of soils from different disciplines of science and engineering is consolidated to identify low-cost, simple procedures for assessing the variation of the thermal resistivity of soils with changes in moisture content. Three procedures for determining the critical moisture content are presented. The critical moisture

Heat-resistant fungi in the soil

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 1992
The occurrence of heat-resistant fungi has been demonstrated in samples of soil from the Slovak Republic. The heat-resistant species isolated were Byssochlamys nivea, Dichotomomyces cejpii, Eupenicillium baarnense, Neosartorya fischeri, Talaromyces avellaneus, Tal. bacillisporus, Tal. emersonii, Tal. flavus, Tal. trachyspermus, Tal.

Soil Resistivity Measurement

2016
Different types of soil and its characteristics have been discussed in Chap. 4. The value of the soil resistivity is mainly dependent on its properties. Soil resistivity measurement is an important factor in finding the best location for any grounding system. Based on the measurement results, new grounding systems are installed for the power generating

Antibiotic Resistance in Soil

2020
Exposure to antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) from natural and agricultural ecosystems such as soil can significantly affect the dissemination of resistance determinants to the human microbiome. Soil contains a diverse natural resistome and also serves as an important environmental reservoir for ARB and ARGs ...

Soil Properties and Soil Resistivity Measurement

CORROSION 1981, 1981
Abstract An outline of general soil characteristics as related to soil resistivity. A discussion of the problems of applying the Wenner Method of resistivity measurement with close pin spacing and the advantages of using rod electrode equations for measuring the resistivity of the top layer of the earth.

Determination of soil parameters to calculate soil resistivity

Russian Electrical Engineering, 2015
This paper is dedicated to the development of techniques allowing for design solutions to be refined on grounding devices. The resistivity is used in the design of grounders in dependence on the soil humidity, temperature, and density. To determine soil humidity at the depth of soil occurrence, two models are used: depending on the season at a depth of

Metagenomic exploration of antibiotic resistance in soil

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2011
The ongoing development of metagenomic approaches is providing the means to explore antibiotic resistance in nature and address questions that could not be answered previously with conventional culture-based strategies. The number of available environmental metagenomic sequence datasets is rapidly expanding and henceforth offer the ability to gain a ...

Uplift resistance of soils

Géotechnique, 1988
The uplift resistance of soils is normally associated with the design of foundations for structures such as transmission line towers where an adequate margin of safety is required against failure. This represents the design for safety case. The Author describes a scheme for the water coolant system at Sizewell A nuclear power station, where eight ...
