Article Synopsis
- Traditional methods for disinfecting water struggle to remove antibiotic resistance genes (iARGs) because bacterial cell membranes act as barriers, making it hard for oxidative processes to work effectively.*
-
- This study introduces a new approach using localized heating alongside advanced oxidation techniques to effectively destroy resistant E. coli and enhance the degradation of iARGs through a special photothermal Fenton-like process employing a unique Fe-Mn@CNT membrane.*
-
- The results showed that this innovative method significantly increased the removal of iARGs, achieving a 143% improvement compared to standard methods, leading to substantial inactivation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and their associated genes.*
