Antibiotic resistance is widely recognized as one of the most urgent public health challenges of the twenty first century. Now, a new study shows that even very small amounts of antibiotics that commonly appear in soil, rivers, wastewater, and agricultural runoff may significantly accelerate the spread of antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria. The research, published in Biocontaminant, investigates how four typical antibiotics found in the environment influence both vertical and horizontal gene transfer, the two major pathways through which bacteria pass on resistance. The team examined tetracycline, ampicillin, kanamycin, and streptomycin at concentrations ranging from extremely low environmental levels to sub inhibitory levels. These concentrations are commonly detected in rivers, farmland soil, livestock operations, and hospital wastewater. The scientists established three experimental models to capture how resistance spreads. The first model focused on vertical gene transfer, which refers to the passage of genes from parent cells to their progeny. The ...
