The occurrence of antibiotic compounds in coastal environments is of great concern since most of the pollutant discharges flow into the ocean. The immediate effect of antibiotic release in marine environments is believed to be the selection of resist...

The isolation of antimicrobial resistant bacteria (ARB) from wildlife living adjacent to humans has led to the suggestion that such antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is anthropogenically driven by exposure to antimicrobials and ARB. However, ARB have al... Read More about Anthropogenic environmental drivers of antimicrobial resistance in wildlife.
