Highly sensitive detection of antimicrobial resistance genes in hospital wastewater using the multiplex hybrid capture target enrichment

ABSTRACT Wastewater can be useful in monitoring the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) within a hospital. The abundance of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in hospital effluent was assessed using metagenomic sequencing (mDNA-seq) and hybrid capture (xHYB). mDNA-seq analysis and subsequent xH...
