概括
肥料的应用将抗生素残留物和耐药细菌引入水中. 这项研究发现,表面水中存在广泛的污染,受精后大肠杆菌的抗生素耐药性增加,突出了水生生态系统的风险.
科学领域:
- 环境科学 环境科学
- 微生物学 微生物学
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 农业肥料应用是已知的抗生素残留物和抗生素耐药细菌 (ARB) 的来源.
- 这些污染物可以进入水生生态系统,对环境和人类健康构成风险.
- 环境中抗生素耐药性的传播是一个日益严重的全球性问题.
研究的目的:
- 在肥后的地表水和地下水中调查抗生素残留物和ARB的存在和水平.
- 评估农业实践对指标细菌抗生素耐药性的流行和模式的影响.
- 评估抗生素污染对水生生态系统构成的风险,并为政策提供信息.
主要方法:
- 50个地表水位 (施肥前和施肥后) 和50个地下水井的采样.
- 对一系列抗生素残留物的分析,使用对低度 (0.01-10μg/L) 敏感的方法.
- 检测和抗生素耐药性分析指标细菌,包括大肠杆菌和扩展谱β-乳糖酶 (ESBL),产生大肠杆菌.
主要成果:
- 在淡水生态系统中广泛检测到各种抗生素残留物;只有16%的样本没有残留物.
- 硫胺和林氏素经常被检测到,其度有时超过了对抗菌素耐药性选择的预测无效水平.
- 大肠杆菌在受精后 (20%至48%) 显著增加了对硫甲醇的耐药性,这表明便对抗生素耐药性增加的贡献.
- 虽然在地下水中不太普遍,但抗生素耐药性很普遍,ESBL产生的大肠杆菌表现出高耐药性,包括对关键的最后避险抗生素.
结论:
- 农业肥料应用是抗生素残留物和ARB进入水生环境的重要途径.
- 环境中的抗生素污染有助于抗生素耐药性的选择和传播,包括地下水.
- 迫切需要监测,立法和缓解策略,以制抗生素污染和打击水生生态系统中的耐药性.

In 1928, bacteriologist Frederick Griffith worked on a vaccine for pneumonia, which is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. Griffith studied two pneumonia strains in mice: one pathogenic and one non-pathogenic. Only the pathogenic strain killed host mice.
Griffith made an unexpected discovery when he killed the pathogenic strain and mixed its remains with the live, non-pathogenic strain. Not only did the mixture kill host mice, but it also contained living pathogenic bacteria that...

Acute diarrhea, a common gastrointestinal disturbance, is characterized by the rapid evacuation of fluid stools, leading to an excessive weight in fluid. This condition typically arises from disorders affecting intestinal water and electrolyte transport. It can be triggered by an increased osmotic load within the intestine, excessive secretion of electrolytes and water, mucosal exudation of protein and fluid, or altered intestinal motility. The primary risks of acute diarrhea are dehydration...
