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.
Dataset of paper "Growth and prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in microplastic biofilm from wastewater treatment plant effluents"
AI summary Read the abstract
This is a duplicate dataset entry for the study on antibiotic-resistant bacteria in microplastic biofilms in wastewater treatment plant effluents. The data document microbial communities on plastic surfaces that could transport drug-resistant bacteria into receiving waterways.
Microplastics in fresh- and wastewater are potential contributors to antibiotic resistance - A minireview
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed the link between microplastic pollution and the spread of antibiotic resistance in freshwater environments, finding that microplastic surfaces host unique bacterial communities enriched in antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the resistance genes they can share with other microbes. The close packing of bacteria in these plastic-surface biofilms may accelerate the spread of drug-resistant pathogens through drinking water sources, though the full health implications remain poorly understood.
Dataset of paper "Growth and prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in microplastic biofilm from wastewater treatment plant effluents"
AI summary Read the abstract
This is a dataset accompanying a study on antibiotic-resistant bacteria in biofilms growing on microplastics in wastewater treatment plant effluents. The data include DNA sequencing results showing which bacterial species colonize plastic surfaces in treated wastewater.
Microplastisphere may induce the enrichment of antibiotic resistance genes on microplastics in aquatic environments: A review
AI summary Read the abstract
This first meta-analysis of antibiotic resistance gene (ARG) enrichment on microplastics found that ARGs were more abundant on microplastic surfaces than on inorganic substrates or in surrounding water, but less abundant than on natural organic substrates. Freshwater microplastics showed a higher degree of ARG enrichment than those in saline water or sewage.
