Article Synopsis
  • The increase in antibiotic resistance poses a significant global health threat, with new research revealing that non-antibiotic chemicals, like herbicides, may contribute to this issue.
  • Exposure to three common herbicides (glyphosate, glufosinate, and dicamba) was found to alter the antibiotic sensitivity of the model strain DH5, particularly enhancing its resistance to gentamicin and other antibiotics over time.
  • Whole-genome sequencing indicated that these herbicides can cause genetic mutations in bacteria, which may further encourage the spread of antibiotic resistance genes in various environments.

Spectroscopy methods such as three-dimensional excitation-emission (3D-EEM) fluorescence spectroscopy were applied to analyze the structures and changes of DOM in hyperthermophilic composting of sewage sludge to fully understand the advantages of hyperthermophilic composting in promoting sludge maturity. The results showed that the temperature reached its peak value at 90℃ and remained over 80℃ for 5 d. The thermophilic period more than 50℃ lasted for 22 d.
