Growth and prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in microplastic biofilm from wastewater treatment plant effluents

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers studied antibiotic-resistant bacteria growing in biofilms on microplastic surfaces in wastewater treatment plant effluent. The study found that microplastic biofilms accumulated antibiotic-resistant bacteria including Pseudomonas, Aeromonas, and Bacillus, and that these biofilms harbored higher concentrations of resistance genes compared to surrounding water, suggesting microplastics may serve as reservoirs for antibiotic resistance.

Early and differential bacterial colonization on microplastics deployed into the effluents of wastewater treatment plants

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers deployed seven types of microplastic materials into the effluents of two wastewater treatment plants and characterised bacterial communities colonising them after an early biofilm formation period using 16S rRNA sequencing. They found significantly higher bacterial diversity on microplastics than in the surrounding free-living water, and detected elevated antibiotic resistance genes (sulI, tetM) on microplastic surfaces, suggesting that WWTP effluents seed microplastics with pathogen- and resistance gene-carrying biofilms.

Dataset of Paper "Microplastics in fresh- and wastewater are potential contributors to antibiotic resistance - A minireview"

AI summary Read the abstract

This entry provides a supporting dataset for a minireview on microplastics in freshwater and wastewater as potential contributors to antibiotic resistance spread. The tables document reported abundances and characteristics of microplastics and antibiotic resistance elements across water environments. It is a dataset rather than an original research paper.
