Diversity of antibiotic resistance gene variants at subsequent stages of the wastewater treatment process revealed by a metagenomic analysis of PCR amplicons

Wastewater treatment plants have been recognised as point sources of various antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) which are considered recently emerging biological contaminants. So far, culture-based and molecular-based methods have been successfully applied to m...
