Wastewater-based epidemiology can be a complementary approach for monitoring SARS-CoV-2 prevalence, diversity, and geographic distribution. It is regarding its prevalence The study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity of in two wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Samples were collected over period January December 2021 concentrated with PEG8000 presence was detected using E N1 genes. Partial sequencing genomes resulted identification variants concern interest...

Abstract Aims To investigate the occurrence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) and their clonal relationships from hospital municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Methods results Eighteen Kl. strains recovered three WWTPs were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization–time flight (MALDI-TOF). The antimicrobial susceptibility evaluated disk-diffusion carbapenemases production Carbapenembac®. genes investigated real-time PCR relationship through...

Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) are widespread in the environment due to overuse of antibiotics and other pollutants, posing a threat human animal health. In this study, we evaluated antimicrobial residues, bacterial diversity ARGs two important watersheds, Guandu São João, that supply drinking water Rio de Janeiro city, Brazil. addition, tap samples were collected from three different cities State, including metropolitan area city. Clarithromycin, sulfamethoxazole azithromycin found...

The emergence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (Efm) harboring vanA gene and multidrug-resistant determinants is a relevant public health concern. It an opportunistic pathogen responsible for nosocomial infections widely distributed in the environment, including wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Our study addresses genomic investigation vanA-carrying Efm from WWTPs Brazil. Samples five supplied with sewage different sources were evaluated. Here we present whole-genome...

This study investigated the phylogenetic relatedness of multidrug-resistant Elizabethkingia anophelis recovered from an industrial wastewater treatment plant (WWTPi).The samples were plated in brain heart infusion agar (4 mg/L ceftazidime, 8 meropenem, and 2 polimixin). Four isolates four stages WWTPi (influent, aeration, decantation, treated effluent) identified evaluated susceptibility profiles VITEK system. These strains as E. meningoseptica confirmed to be by whole genomic sequencing...
