Contribution of Manure-Spreading Operations to Bioaerosols and Antibiotic Resistance Genes’ Emission

Contribution of Manure-Spreading Operations to Bioaerosols and Antibiotic Resistance Genes’ Emission

Manure spreading from farm animals can release antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) carrying antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) into the air, posing a potential threat to human and animal health due to the intensive use of antibiotics in the livestock industry. This study analyzed the effect of di...
